[TRNSYS-users] Time steps on Studio (deck) and Build

[Carlos Flores]

To be more clear David,
I've got a .FOR file from a particular type in TRNSYS (Type 396, parabolic
trough field model). The thing is that this model would not work in a proper
way for my purposes because it was done thinking in a power station and not
in a smaller-size heating plant.

So, I want to modify it a bit and therefore, create a new proforma that
would be a modification of the type 396.

So, in this context... how do I create my new proforma, given this fortran
source code?

Thanks again, best regards
