[TRNSYS-users] REFPROP and TRNSYS

[David Bradley]

Hal,
  There was a connection between TRNSYS 15 and REFPROP  although it was 
never (to the best of my knowledge) part of the official package.  The 
connection was built on the concept of Type61 (calling external DLLs ) 
and a piece of code called refprop.for. It also required a REFPROP 
license (and the corresponding REFPROP.dll). I imagine that the 
connection could probably be revived for TRNSYS 16. I notice on the NIST 
website that you can purchase the REFPROP (Fortran) sourcecode so I am 
not entirely sure what the advantage there is to the previous 
implementation of calling the REFPROP DLL.
Kind regards,
 David
