Re: [TRNSYS-users] Regarding using TRNLIB - Libraries of User-Written Components for TRNSYS in TRNSYS 17.



Ashmin,

  The Types that are available in TRNLib are all user-donated. As such they are in various states depending on when they were donated by their authors. I had a look at both the Types you mentioned and while you will need to compile the code and turn it into a DLL, both are written in such a way that they should be compatible with Trnsys17. You'll need to have access to a fortran compiler such as Intel's Visual Fortran in order to create the DLLs. If you do have access to that particular compiler then a compiler project is already set up for you in the .\Trnsys71\Compilers\ directory. If by some chance you have access to Trnsys18 then you could use the TypeStudio to compile the code and would not have to have access to an external fortran compiler.

  You'll also need to make proformas so that the components can be used in the Simulation Studio. Some of the components in TRNLib have those available but not Types206 or 214

  As a side note, the equations in Type206 are simple enough that I think you could recode it as a block of equations in your Simulation Studio project. Type214 is more complicated and probably needs to stay a Type.

kind regards

 David

Hello,
I am planning to use a 3-way valve with an actuator(component 214) and damper/valve (component 206) which are user-written. When I searched for it on the internet I found it on this link http://sel.me.wisc.edu/trnsys/trnlib/library16.htm. FORTRAN code for it is given on this linkhttp://sel.me.wisc.edu/trnsys/trnlib/trnlib16/hydronics/type214.for.
I was wondering how can I use this code to implement and create a module so I can use it in my simulation using TRNSYS 17. Please help me.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Ashmin Aryal
