Re: [TRNSYS-users] How to connect an equation to a parameter of a component
Christina,
You can't change the value of a parameter during a simulation; the
definition of a parameter is a value that is constant over the entire
length of the simulation. You would need to change the Type itself and
modify both the source code and the proforma so that the heat transfer
coefficient becomes an input instead of a parameter. You would then have
to recompile the STEC library DLL with the modified source code in order
for the change to take effect.
Best,
David

Dear trnsys users,
How can I change a value of a parameter during a simulation?For
example in the component "steam evaporator" of stec library-rankine ,I
want to change the parameter "overall heat transfer factor" during the
time of the simulation depending of the input "hot side flow rate".
I have made the equation which connects these values( overall heat
transfer factor,hot side flow rate) but I do not know how to connect
the equation to the parameter as it appears only the inputs of the
componet.
Thank you in advance,
Tsechelidou Christina
