Tee
Introduction
Similar to the mixer, the tee is a point where streams combine and diverge. It also allows splits to be specified for products.
Tee Dynamics
There is one option for the Tee which determines that equations are contributed to the simultaneous network. It is recommended that for larger more realistic cases and in general, that the Use splits as dynamic flow specs option be left unchecked. This is more realistic since the flow rates in the various streams will then be determined by the pressure and resistances through the model.
Alternatively, the product outlets can also be determined by specifying a valve outlet for every product. The ratio of the valve openings determine how much of the feed stream flow rate is linked to each product stream. These values can be controlled of course. This option should only be used for simple cases and setups, since it can result in unrealistic behavior such as flow against the pressure gradient.
