[TRNSYS-users] Restaurant absorp. cooling Tess example

HI Martin, 

 

The chiller is scalable to any size using the first ‘parameter’ of the TYPE called ‘Rated Capacity’ . I highly recommend going through the mathematical reference in the user manual, and the FORTRAN code to get a full understanding of how the code works. This is because it is based on a catalogue data table loop up approach. You will need to obtain the performance of a range of operating conditions to simulate a real chillers performance. 

 

If you are new to TRNSYS: start by going through the getting started documentation to understand parameters, inputs and outputs of each type. 

 

Best regards,
Jeremy

Thank you, I found the weather block it was in the hidden layer.

I have one more issue, as I understand the absorption chiller always modulate its power so it can reach the chilled water set point temperature? - so does it mean that with this type 107 it is not possible to make simulations with different chiller powers(rated capacity) and see how they affect on the system? 

 

Kind regards

Martin

Hi Martin, 

 

The weather data is hidden in a layer. Go to view -> show layers -> and enable weather - data files and you should see TYPE15-2 appear with all the connection. 

 

Layers are used to better organise complex models, removing certain clutter. 

 

Regards,
Jeremy

Hi,

 

I was looking at the example provided  with the Tess library about the Restaurant absorption chilling, so the simulation runs ok, but I can not find the weather block i.e. the collector and building are not connected to it -how is this possible, how does it function, can someone give me explanation?

 

Thank you

 

Best Regards

Martin
