[TRNSYS-users] Requested: Ice storage tank model

[Jeff Thornton]

Len. 

We (TESS) have a rather simple fully mixed ice-storage tank that
includes a simple internal heat exchanger that we often make available.
It doesn't have a lot of features but does provide a nice first cut for
simulations to see how well the system will operate. Let me know if you
have any interest.
