Re: [TRNSYS-users] Some Questions

Ali,

 The source code for the standard library components is in the .\TrnsysXX\SourceCode\Types directory and the source code for the TESS Library components is in the .\TrnsysXX\Tess Models\SourceCode directory. Source files are text so you can open them with Notepad. If you change them you'll need a way of recompiling them into a dll. They are not recompiled on the fly before each simulation.

 There are some air-based solar collector models in the TESS Solar library. You will also find some collector models in that library in which you can define a desired outlet temperature and have the model tell you what flow is required. I am not sure if any of the air-specific collector models have that feature so you may need to use one of the collector models that does not specifically have air as its working fluid and set it's working fluid specific heat to that of air.

best,

 David

Hi everyone,

 

I have some question

 

1-     How can I access to source code of components existing in library?

2-     Which component is suitable for modelling an air based solar collector?

3-     How can I control the outlet temperature of a solar collector to not exceed from a specified values?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Ali
