[TRNSYS-users] Type 557 (ground heat exchangers) problem

As you found out, Type 557 only allows once instance of this type in a
TRNSYS simulation. With several large projects requiring multiple
borehole fields, we took quite a bit of time and re-worked Type 557 to
allow multiple instances as well as add a few features; namely the
ability to direct flow into and out of distinct radial regions in the
field. This becomes important when you use the model with radial
stratification and wish to explore creative charging and discharging
options with the field. This new model will be featured in the new TESS
GHP library when we release it for Version 18 in a few months - but we
could make it available earlier if people are interested. Please e-mail
us off the mailing list if you are interested in learning more.
