With the use of the recompiled DLLs (thx Matt),
I’ve started to incorporate forcing functions/equations that govern the (Wind
Speed or Indoor Air Speed), (Amb RH or Zone RH), and (Amb temp or Zone temp)
with the use of heating and cooling season indicators from Type15. Adding
each of these forcing functions one at a time and then testing, I encountered
no problems until I added a forcing function/equation for Type344 l to use the
Type56 zone temp during heating season and the ambient temp from Type15.
As I anticipated, I am having convergence problems in the simulation when it
transitions from closed to open pool: the pool temp runs away to the high side.
What check might I need to add into the simulation to better implement the transition
from closed pool to open pool so there are no convergence problems?

Kent,
Yes, you will indeed have to recompile after making those changes in the source
code. Also, make sure the NP, NI, NO are correct for your changes as well.
Best regards,
Matt Duffy

Do the Type344 DLLs need to be recompiled after
modifications to the
source code and proforma? I've changed the source code ("trnsys
declarations", "read parameters", and "read input"
sections) and the
proforma to reflect 17 and 9 inputs and parameters, resp, instead of the
original 16 & 10 count. (Parameter 4 was changed to an input and its
Min/Max range was modified to allow switching from indoor to outdoor
pool.) However, I am still getting fatal error messages before the
simulation starts regarding the inconsistency in the number of
parameters and inputs.
"...17 inputs were supplied and 16 are required..."
Similarly for parameters.

Kent,
Changing the window glazing ID to 10001 (no glazing) will allow solar
to pass unhindered through the building envelope. I am not sure it
captures all of the changes that you want because when your in
indoor-pool mode, you want the pool's water mass exchange to occur
between the pool surface and the trapped zone air. When you go to
outdoor pool mode, however, the pool exchanges water mass with ambient
air. I would think that at the least, you would also want to add a very
large infiltration amount into your zone when you go into outdoor mode.
As for the switch between indoor and outdoor mode, I took a really quick
look at the component and it looks like if you moved some of the
parameters to inputs, you could hot-swap the pool model in the middle of
the simulation. If you did that, you could come up with whatever
algorithm or forcing function you wanted to switch back and forth
between indoor and outdoor modes.
Kind regards,
David
