Nomikos,
   If you refer to the Type52 section of the mathematical description 
manual (volume 05 in TRNSYS 16, volume 04 in TRNSYS 17), I believe that 
the first figure (4.4.5.-1 in TRNSYS 17) will clarify. The "a" dimension 
is the one perpendicular to the air flow path (parameter 14) while the 
"c" dimension is the one parallel (parameter 15).
Best,
  David
