[TRNSYS-users] Changing the role of a standard component

[papia sultana]

Dear Diego,
Thanx for your interest.
In my problem, I am using 'type 14 h' to read a variable cooling load (let's 
say within 0 to 24 hr). Next, I am linking this to a 'type 91' HE through an 
appropriate equation 'equa' (needed to convert the unit). For the HE of 
'type 91', I would like to link the 'cooling load' in terms of 'heat 
transfer rate' in the input list. So that new input list could be: heat 
transfer rate, hot side flow rate, cold side inlet temp, cold side flow 
rate. The output list may remain same or could cut down one/ two. My point 
is, how could I modify the component 'type 91' to cop with variable load?

best regards
Papia
