Yi,
I should start by saying that I do not have any direct experience
with coupling TRNSYS and Fluent. However, in Type56, you can define
gains in a zone and you can define them as having a radiative
component, a convective component and a latent component. I would
imagine that the coupling to which the paper refers is by defining a
purely convective gain in the zone.
Kind regards,
David

Hello,
I'm doing some research on the coupling of Trnsys(TYPE56
Multizone) and CFD program recently. The most referenced work
is the doctoral thesis of Z.
Zhai, “Developing an integrated building design tool by
coupling building energy simulation and computational fluid
dynamics programs,” Thesis, Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, 2003. http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/17617 And I see there is also a Type101 in TRNSYS for calling
Fulent, so I tried to find more information about it, the only
thing I found is a paper from Diego A. Arias http://www.ibpsa.us/pub/simbuild2006/papers/SB06_231_237.pdf.
In the paper Multizone is unfortunately not involved. I hope I
can get more information from you here. According to the work of Zhai, the convective heat
transfer from wall surface to air is the key of the coupling
process. My Question is, How can I implement the convective
heat flux to TRNSYS?
Best regards!
Yi
