[TRNSYS-users] long wave radiation

[David Bradley]

Ahmed,
   The problem is with the variable limits in the Type56 proforma. What you 
need to do is open (double click on) the Type56 proforma in the Direct 
Access tool on the right hand side of the Studio screen (as opposed to 
double clicking on the Type56 icon in your project). Switch to the 
"Variables" tab and click the "Variables (Parameters, Inputs, Outputs, 
Derivatives)" button. Switch to the "Parameters" tab and modify the "Max." 
field of the second parameter (star network calculation switch) to be 100. 
Save your change and exit the proforma.

   The last slight complication is that when you change a proforma, your 
change is NOT reflected in your projects. You have to open your project, 
click once on the Type56 icon, and select "Replace" from the "Edit" menu 
and browse to find Type56. This replaces the proforma in your project with 
the proforma that you modified.

Kind regards,
  David
