[TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS interacts with Excel

Marcos, 

If your goal is only to prepare input data for a TRNSYS type, you may consider writing a plug-in. 

The advantage is that you can use any programming language (especially one which makes it easy to create graphical front ends). 

An example of such a plug can be seem in type 14 - note the little icon on the bottom-left of the parameter window. 

The process is described in the TRNSYS manual under 

2.11. Appendix 2: How to use the plug-in

In 

.\Trnsys16\Documentation\02-SimulationStudio.pdf

HTH,

Werner

Objet : [TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS interacts with Excel

Hello, good morning. 

My name is Marcos Falcon, a member of the technical team IBERSOLAR ENERGIA S.A. in Barcelona, Spain. 

We have gained TRNSYS to perform simulations energy with solar thermal applications. 

I am trying to make an application on TRNSYS that interacts with Excel. 

Within the application, I want to create a drop-down menu, where you will get the collector model we have in IBERSOLAR, and according to the collector chosen, we send some parameters specific collector from the Excel sheet. But I find the problem that is not done. 

The route of the information would be as follows: 

Select a collector since TRNSYS. The collector chosen as put in a cell in particular the Excel sheet. According to the collector chosen, I will prepare the data collector on the Excel sheet to carry them TRNSYS and take these data as input parameters for the collector. 

How can I do it? 

Thank you in advance.
