Dear TRNSYS users, I plan to model an energy system for melting snow and ice on sports fields, and need a component for modelling the pipe network under the fields (heat transfer between the pipes and the ground, surface temperature etc.). Please review the attached document for an explanation of the project. Has anyone done any similar modelling, and knows of suitable component/components for this purpose? I am already aware of the horizontal ground heat exchanger component (Type 916) from TESS and some work by dr. Jeffrey Spitler on snow melting on bridges and pavement surfaces, but would like to know if anyone has experience with this kind of modelling and the best TRNSYS components available. Thanks in advance for replying. Best regards, Knut Erik Enerstvedt PS.
