[TRNSYS-users] heat pipe

[Jeff Thornton]

I'll repeat my answer from earlier as it hasn't changed: It depends on
how you'd like to model the collector. If the collector has been tested
to one of the common collector test standards (EN12975-2 for example),
then it can be readily modeled in TRNSYS. If you are looking for a
detailed physics-based first principles model of a concentrating heat
pipe collector, I am not aware of one.
