Thanks already.<br>
<br>
But when a constant is defined in the control card, can I use it in an
equation which is defined in an equation bloc on the assembly panel? Or
do I have to write that equation in the control card too ? (hope it is
clear ...)<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>

You can use any constant in other equations, as a parameter or as an
initial value (for the last 2 options you need to set the variable type
to "string").<br>
<br>
The Studio creates the following 3 constants by default:<br>
START : simulation start time<br>
STEP : simulation time step<br>
STOP : simulation stop time<br>
<br>
You can also add your own equations/constants in the control cards (in
the "simulation cards" field, e.g.<br>
CONSTANTS 1<br>
MyConstant = 123.45<br>
(This is the same as creating an equation block in the Studio, except
that CONSTANTS are picked by the parametric table tool in TRNEdit,
EQUATIONS are not)<br>
<br>
And don't forget that in TRNSYS 16, you do not have to pay attention to
the order of equations anymore. You can have things like:<br>
Var1 = Var2+6<br>
Var2 = 4<br>
in that order.<br>
<br>
<br>
I hope this helps,<br>
