[TRNSYS-users] simulate big amount of stuff inside industrail building

[David BRADLEY]

There are two possibilities. The first is to compute the thermal mass of 
the stuff and set that value as the thermal capacitance of the Type56 
zone (I assume you are using Type56). This option assumes that the air 
of the zone and the stuff in the zone are always at the same 
temperature. If that is not a good assumption and you want to 
characterize the air and the stuff as having different temperatures then 
you might look at the TESS Loads and Structures library where you will 
find a lumped capacitance model. Again, you'd compute the thermal mass 
of the stuff in the zone and set the lumped capacitance accordingly. 
However, the lump and the zone would then impact each other by means of 
the temperature of the space (passed from 56 to the lump) and convective 
and radiative energy gains (passed from the lump back to Type56).

kind regards,

  David
