Re: [TRNSYS-users] variable stradified tank model



Dear Mr. Akba,
I think that you would have to modify one of the existing components using a Fortran compiler in order to model a stratified variable volume tank. One complexity that you need to think about is how you will treat the volume of the nodes as the liquid volume changes. Will the liquid always be divided up into the same number of nodes regardless of the total current liquid volume? Or will the number of nodes vary while the volume of each node stays the same?
Kind regards,
 David

Dear all TRNSYS user,

I want to use variable stratified tank model. When I check TRNSYS and TESS libraries there are lumped variable vol. tank (type 39) and several stratified tank models. Does anyone know a variable stratified tank model or a way of modelling large volume tank with changing volume during simulation in TRNSYS.

Best regards,
and wish you a good year...
