Angelos, I am afraid that you might that there is not a huge amount of experience on this forum with the STEC library components. They have been offered as an "as is" add on to those who want to use them but it has been quite some time since they were updated and I'm not sure how many people are actually using them on a day to day basis. You're going to need to build the system up one component at a time and use a lot of instances of Type65 to plot out output variables that will show whether the system is operating the way you think it should. Start with a weather component and simply plot the solar radiation and the ambient temperature using Type65. Then add the solar field with a constant flow rate and look at the field outlet temperature. Does the plot make sense? Is the flow coming out the same as the flow going in? Next, add some storage and another online plot trace. In this way you will not only learn how TRNSYS itself works but you will understand each of the models that you are implementing in your system as you go.
