[TRNSYS-users] Quick question on solar collector model

[dev sharma <devsharmami@gmail.com>]

Hey All,

 

Can someone please tell me the physical significance of No. of Nodes in modelling a solar thermal collector? or how is T_out dependent on it?

 

My observation by running the model is that T_out increases with increase in number of nodes, but the effect is such that T_out is dependent on the exponential of this number somehow. Am I even close to making sense?

 

Thanks
