Muhammad,

  Can you be a bit more specific about what you mean by "transient 
state" analysis? Type1271 uses a performance map lookup method. Its 
compressor is assumed to vary its speed to maintain a constant outlet 
temperature on the load side. In that the heat pump compressor adjusts 
to the present load requirements it does do a transient analysis. 
However, if you are looking for a component that uses a more first 
principals approach and models the state of the refrigerant in the heat 
pumps heat exchangers, compressors, and expansion valve then I think you 
would need to look to a different Type than 1271.


As a side comment, please note that Type1271 is an air (source) to water 
(load) heat pump, not an air to air heat pump.

kind regards,

  David
