[TRNSYS-users] Re: TYPE55 periodic integrator



At 01:52 PM 11/3/2004 +0100, you wrote:

I simulate a system with a simulation time step of 1 minute. I would like to
use TYPE 55 "periodic integrator" to obtain mean temperatures over a period
of 3 minutes.
The values of the parameters for one input are written below :

- Integrate or sum input 1 : -1 (sum)
- Relative starting hour for input 1 : 1 hr
- Duration for input 1 : 3 min
- Cycle repeat time for input 1 : 3 min
- Reset time for input 1 : 3 min
- Absolute starting hour for input 1 : 1 hr
- Absolute stopping hour for input 1 : 744 hr

It doesn't work correctly and I do not understand why. I think the problem
comes from the "relative starting hour". I tried 1 hr, 0 hr, 3 min without
success.

Are you using a later version of the TRNSYS 15 software? I just tried the following example and it worked perfectly:

ASSIGN ***.LST  6
ASSIGN ***.OUT  21

EQUATIONS 2
STEP=1/60
RESET=3/60

SIMULATION 1 100  STEP

EQUATIONS 1
A=TIME

UNIT 55 TYPE 55 PERIODIC INTEGRATOR
PARAMETERS 7
1  1  RESET  RESET  RESET  1  8760
INPUTS 1

0.0

UNIT 25 TYPE 25 PRINTER
PARAMETERS 5
RESET  1  8760  21  1
INPUTS 2
55,3  55,2
MEAN  COUNT
-  -

END
