I'm having a little bit of trouble with Type57. The table Nb. for input-1 is 1(Temperature), ID number from table for input -1 is 1(Celsius) and ID number from table for output-1 is 3 (Kelvin). When input is 300 ,the output is 373. This is a series problem. The correct result is 300+273=573. How is that???
Andy,I'll admit that when I first looked at this that I thought you had just simply screwed something up - but you are 100% correct. I traced the error back to the Units.lab file which is located in the Exe directory. Somehow, at some point, the leading + signs were stripped from the unit conversions in this file. I've updated the file and we'll release it with the next TRNSYS release but if you want to fix it now it's pretty simple.
For each of the conversions in the file simply add a leading + to each numerical value. So
TE2=øF 1.80000E+00 3.20000E+01 becomes TE2=øF +1.80000E+00 +3.20000E+01There should be seventeen characters before the first + sign, a 12-character number (including the + sign), 3 spaces, and then another 12-character number (including the + sign). Make the fix for all of the units in the file. Or simply e-mail me and I'll send out the file to anyone that wants it.
