[TRNSYS-users] Component details

[David BRADLEY]

Ravinda,

   There is a pressure reducing valve component in the TESS CHP library. 
It is typically used in steam applications and assumes steam as the 
working fluid.

   Typically we do not model refrigeration systems at the heat exchanger 
/ compressor / expansion valve level but take the whole cycle as a 
component. The time constant of the transient behavior within the 
refrigeration cycle is so small that a typical TRNSYS time step (1-5 
minutes in the kind of systems that we work with) that the refrigeration 
loop can be seen as steady state. We therefore assign a COP that is 
dependent on the external inlet conditions (such as temperature and 
humidity of the air on the condenser and evaporator sides).

kind regards,

  David
