[TRNSYS-users] Tank with a heat pump and a heat exchanger

[David BRADLEY]

Marion,
   The basic idea of TRNSYS is that systems are modeled as groups of 
components connected to each other according to the user's 
specifications. In order to model the system that you propose, you would 
connect the Type534 heat exchanger outlet liquid temperature and flow 
rate to the Type938 inlet liquid temperature and flow rate. You would 
also need a controller model so that the heat pump knows when the tank 
has reached the desired temperature and may turn off. Since this concept 
is very central to TRNSYS, I would recommend that you look at some of 
the examples (particularly the solar domestic water heating (SDHW 
examples) so that you see how components are linked to one another to 
form a system.
Regards,
  David
