[TRNSYS-users] Request (Samuele)

Samuele,
   Depending on the configuration of your system, it might also be 
necessary to put in some kind of device that can remove energy from the 
fluid loop. With only a concentrator, a pump, and some pipes, you will get 
a bit of thermal loss from the pipes and concentrator but the fluid 
temperature is just going to go up and up unless there is some way to 
extract energy from the loop (a tank, a heat exchanger, etc.)
Cheers,
  David
