[TRNSYS-users] Stochastic occupancy profiles

[David BRADLEY]

Angel,
   There are two components in the TESS Utility Library (Type577, and 
Type578) which provide a random number with either a uniform or a normal 
distribution. When I have needed to make a schedule that has some random 
element to it, I have used one of these two Types combined with my set 
schedule in an equation so that I don't get quite the same schedule from 
day to day. I imagine you could do the same for setpoints.
Best,
  David
