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 or Post 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.
Hi
I'm simulating a micro gas turbine for chp system and its full-load performance of it is completed. The whole problem is how can I run it for part load conditions or which type of component can be pragmatic for this system, moreover, this system is simulated by STEC/DLR.
There is a microturbine with part-load performance component model in the v18 release of the TESS libraries. It is Type 601 in the Cogeneration or Combined Heat and Power (CHP) library of components.
General descriptions of models in the TESS libraries may be found at https://trnsys.com/tess-libraries/GeneralDescriptions_TESSLibs18.pdf .
Pricing and ordering information for the TESS libraries may be found at https://trnsys.com/tess-libraries/how-to-order.php.html .
@a_weiss Is there any example to illustrate how can i use this component, like how can i get partial load performance by using type 601?
@a_weiss and @morteza.hosseini
yes, there is an example of using Type601 to match experimental data at part load included with the library. If you would like, please send me a direct email (d.bradley@tess-inc.com) and I can send you the example's documentation so that you can get an idea of what it does.
As a side note, I should mention that the Type and the example are only available for Trnsys18.
