[TRNSYS-users] variable wall layer conductivity in type56

Piotr,
   You would need to write your own component in order to model that 
sort of a wall. You could then use the BOUNDARY wall concept in Type56 
to make an interface layer between the rest of the building and your 
wall model. In order to write a new model for TRNSYS, you need to have a 
compiler capable of making a 32-bit DLL. The rest of TRNSYS is developed 
using the Intel Visual Fortran compiler and it is highly recommended 
that you use this compiler if at all possible.
Kind regards,
  David
