[TRNSYS-users] Solarthermal collectors

[Haluf, Christopher]

Dear Users!

I have a question concerning solarthermal collectors.

I have a solarthermal system using 10 evacuated tube collectors, each with an effective absorber surface of 3,3 m². Always two of them are in series so that I have 5 x 2 collectors in series. The five collector couples are in parallel. I hope you understand what I mean.

Now, the question is how I can realize this in TRNSYS. I'm using Type 71 to model the evacuated tube collecters. There I can set the "number in series" and "collector area". For each couple, I think that I could set 2 for the "number in series" and 6,6 m² for the "collector area". But I don't know how to model the 5 couples in parallel...

Any help will be appreciated!


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
