Specific Components: Contributions to Flow and Pressure Equations
-----------------------------------------------------------------

In this section, we shall consider the contributions to the mass
flow-rate and pressure equations from the various components in the
primary and intermediate loops. Each compressible volume contributes a
:math:`b_0`, a :math:`b_1`, and a :math:`b_2` in :eq:`5.2-19`, and
each element in each segment connecting two compressible volumes
contributes a :math:`\Delta a_0`, a :math:`\Delta a_1`, a :math:`\Delta a_2`,
and a :math:`\Delta a_3` in :eq:`5.2-10`, :eq:`5.2-12`, :eq:`5.2-14`, and :eq:`5.2-16`. We
shall consider compressible volumes without cover gas, compressible
volumes with cover gas, pipes, intermediate heat exchangers, and pumps.
