Ferrão,
In general, TRNSYS tries to mimic reality. In a real system, you'd have a ventilation system consisting of a fan, a supply vent, a return vent and then some pieces of equpment to heat and cool the return air before sending it back to the building. A thermostat would monitor the room temperature and decide when to turn the fan and other on and off. Your system in TRNSYS will look very similar. If you have a clear idea of how the physical system will be connected and operated then you can begin to create the same in TRNSYS.
As a side note, there is a training course available (http://www.tess-inc.com/trnsys/training.html) whose goal is to teach you how to use TRNSYS but also to give you some guidance on how to think through the modeling process, which admittedly can certainly be a challenge.
kind regards,
David

I am simulating solar energy systems and I was trying to test various equipment, but I am very lost, even with the examples.
I have a chiller to cool the room, but I don't know what connections I should make between a PVT collector and the same. Or if I can connect via a water storage tank?
Best Regards--
Ferrão
