Welcome to the TRNSYS Users Forum.
The forum is a place where people can interact and have discussions about different topics involving the use of the TRNSYS software package. Here you can post topics for discussion or questions on using TRNSYS and get advice from other users or TRNSYS experts. This forum is not intended for detailed technical support. Users should contact their distributor’s hotline for such assistance.
Some tips for success on using the forum:
- Follow the Forum Rules posted in Forum Administration.
- There are categories for different types of topics and questions. Post your topic or question into the proper category.
- Before posting a topic or question search the existing topics (and the TRNSYS Users listserv archive) to see if a similar topic or question has already been answered.
- Use a descriptive topic name. Don’t use attention getting subjects, they don’t get attention and only annoy people.
- State the version of TRNSYS and which add-ons your are using.
- Include enough specific details for your topic of question to be answered. Just posting “Why am I getting an error?” without describing the specific error and what you are trying to do when you get the error will not receive a response that fixes your issue.
- Remember when people help you, they are doing you a favor. Be patient, help people out by posting good descriptions of what you need help with, and be polite even if a response does not solve your issue.
- Moderators may edit your post for clarity or move your topic to a more appropriate category.
Dear all,
I'd like to set up a co-simulation between Trnsys and FEFLOW. I've read that this has been done using Type 6139 / FMI. Type 6139 doesn't seem to work in Trnsys 18 right away, so before putting in further effort I'd be glad if you could share any experiences on the subject of Type 6139 in Trnsys 18 or any other way to couple Trnsys and FEFLOW.
Thanks for your help
Xenia
Have you tried using Type 6139 with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Trnsys18? Do you know if FEFLOW and Type 6139 are available in 32-bit, 64-bit, or both?
Unfortunately I don't have any experience with Type 6139 or FEFLOW specifically, but I know from general experience that there can be problems when trying to couple 64-bit TRNSYS to a 32-bit external program, or when using a TRNSYS type compiled for 32-bit with 64-bit TRNSYS (or vice versa).

@a_weiss Thanks, I'll try that, as far as I know Type 6139 is 32-bit.
