Dear TRNSys users,
We developed a new TYPE to simulated PCMs behaviour coupled with TYPE
56. Unfortunately, there are problems when more than 1 PCM TYPE is
introduced into the project. The TYPE is dynamically design (number of
nodes within the PCM layer, number of layer on both side of the PCMs
layer the STORAGE vector, etc.), the parameter, as well as the inputs
are read at each time step (the IUNIT is forced at each type read:
IUNIT=INFO(1)) and as well as the STORAGE vector.
No problems are identified using only one TYPE in a project but when
more than one TYPE is used (we just copy and paste the first type and
we change an input), the PCMs TYPES inputs seem to be mixed. The time
step used has also an influence on the results.
We might think that the state of the nodes at each time step from
several PCMs TYPES is mixed from one unit to another (e.g. within the
STORAGE vector). But we think we have followed the documentation on
the use of several TYPEs within the same project.
Does any one have an idea?
