[TRNSYS-users] Keeping a value during a period

[David BRADLEY]

Pauline,
   There are a few Types that might help you. The first is a moving 
average component (either Type84 or Type939) which calculates the 
average value of an input over a certain period of time (for instance 
over the last 4 hours). The second is the "input value delay" (Type93 or 
Type661 in the TESS Libs). These components hold on to an input value 
for a desired number of timesteps before "releasing" it as an output. 
There are also some controllers in the TESS Libraries that have 
"lock-outs" (the controller must stay on or off for a certain time after 
changing state) and another that will calculate run-time (the time that 
has elapsed since its input changed state.)
Best,
  David
