Calculation method
Calculation method
Ideal mass flow (kg/s)
Ideal steady coolant m_dot=heat/(cp×temperature rise); divide by density for volume rate. No hydraulic/heat-exchanger sizing.
Ideal volume flow (litres/min)
Ideal steady coolant m_dot=heat/(cp×temperature rise); divide by density for volume rate. No hydraulic/heat-exchanger sizing.

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Ideal steady coolant m_dot=heat/(cp×temperature rise); divide by density for volume rate. No hydraulic/heat-exchanger sizing. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
