[TRNSYS-users] Type 557: Different borehole configurations

[knut.erik.enerstvedt at niva.no]

Chun Kwong and Mathieu,

Thank you both for replying. I am, however, not sure if the superposition 
borehole model is available for TRNSYS 16, or who is distributing it.

Best regards,
Knut Erik Enerstvedt

Hello, Knut.

If you want to model a borefield with all the boreholes aligned in a line,
Type557 may not be suitable, and you need to use other components.  There 
is an
alternative called superposition borehole model (SBM) available in Trnsys 
as
far as I know.  You may ask your dealer.
