Hi, I have recently attempted to implement the 2P-MA heat exchanger block in the Simscape Fluids toolbox and the results were very unstable.
For the first case, where it is used as an evaporator, it seems fine.
For the second case, where it is used as a condenser, the results were constantly fluctuating.
What is causing this problem? I have checked the mathematical model given on the webpage and that does not seem to be the issue here.
On a side note, were these component models validated using experimental data?
