How to use in Hysopt
The DPCV aims to increase the system controllability by maintaining a constant pressure difference across a certain part of the circuit:
...
Instead of installing a DPCV on each control valve it might be satisfactory to apply one single DPCV which maintains a constant differential pressure across a complete branch. This way, the pressure dierences differences across the individual control valves are not perfectly constant anymore. However, the installation costs are reduced significantly.
