[TRNSYS-users] Cooling with lake water

[David Bradley]

Johan,
   I believe that Transsolar has a model of a swimming pool that can be 
uncovered. That might be appropriate for your pond model. I suppose at some 
point a pond or a lake simply acts as an infinite temperature source / 
sink. You could model a pipe descending through the stratified lake simply 
by connecting segments of Type31 together with different environment 
temperatures.
Kind regards,
  David
