[TRNSYS-users] problem in creating a simple new component

Hello everybody

I have problem in creating the new component utilising simulation studio skeleton to create new components.

Description of new component that I am going to create:

Input, output and parameters:

Input: inp

Output: opt

Parameter: par

Equation:

Opt = inp + par

After exporting the performa to fortran the codes comes up in VBF6.6B but unfortunately I don’t know where I should add my simple equation in the script.

I Transys manual 1-68 has been mentioned that we have to add our equations instead of highlight question marks in the fortran script. But in the fortran file there is no question mark.

The tmf file along with fortran file have been attached and also the fortran script has been mentioned below.

I was wondering if you could help to run this simple component.

Regards

Mehdi Shahrestani

! This TRNSYS component skeleton was generated from the TRNSYS studio based on the user-supplied parameters, inputs,

! outputs, and derivatives. The user should check the component formulation carefully and add the content to transform

! the parameters, inputs and derivatives into outputs. Remember, outputs should be the average value over the timestep

! and not the value at the end of the timestep; although in many models these are exactly the same values. Refer to

! existing types for examples of using advanced features inside the model (Formats, Labels etc.)
