Re: [TRNSYS-users] QUESTION 1

Prof Jimenez,
  You can simulate parallel collector panels by simply increasing the array area parameter to account for as many panels as you have in the array. Doing so neglects the piping between the panels if they are externally manifolded. To account for thermal losses from such piping, you can simply use multiple instances of the solar collector Type and connect them with a pipe model (such as Type31).
regards,
 David

Hello

I'd like to know if I can simulate in TRNSYS STUDIO solar collectors in  either parallel sets: external manifold and internal manifold.

Can I acces tutorial?
