Fernando,
Working with TYPE60-TRNSYS16 (storage tank), I got incorrect results. I think that the following lines in the source code shouldn’t be commented: ...
You are correct that this is a bug in Type 60. It was fixed in the 16.00.0037 release. That release contains a significant update to the manuals and fixes many issues, including two bad bugs with Type 60 (Stratified tank with heat exchangers) and Type 10 (rockbed storage). We strongly recommend that all users install the update.
Also, TYPE109 (integrated reader and radiation processor) fails reading input files at some time steps. For variables which appear in the input file, at some steps the output value is equal to the value at next time step (this value is repeated twice); for example: INPUT FILE OUTPUT - TYPE109 15.2 13.2 (?) 13.2 13.2 This always happens at sunset time steps. I think that the problem comes up from the “update_time_sun_radiation” subroutine, which incorrectly changes the value of “u(m)%p(n_low(k),0)”
We will investigate this issue. Could you send me an example (project + data file) off-list?
