Hello,
I am currently running TRNSYS with using a computer with a 3.2 GHz
prcoessor with 512 MB of RAM. It takes approximately 100 seconds to
run a simulation. This is a reasonable amount of time, except that I
am running TRNSYS with an optimisation program and am requiring to
perform thousands of TRNSYS simulations per run. I am thinking of
getting a quicker computer or workstation to help speed TRNSYS up.
Has anyone had experience running TRNSYS using duel core processors
or other high performance computers or workstations? If so, what
have been your experiences? Can the computation time be
significantly reduced with the use of a more powerful computer?
Thanks,
