<div class="gmail_quote">Ali, you may be able to call TRNEXE from the command line, from within MATLAB. Here is the syntax as you would write it at the command prompt, or in a batch program:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;" class="gmail_quote">

<div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-US">
<div>
<p>Dear TRNSYS users,</p>
<p> I
know that it is possible to call MATLAB from TRNSYS, Using TYPE 155, but does
anyone know if it is possible to call TRNSYS from MATLAB. What I'm trying
to do is using MATLAB optimization tools to solve a multi-objective
optimization problem. I'm trying to ask MATLAB to read TRNSYS output file,
modify it to create a new input file and initiate TRNSYS. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Ali</p>

The output parameters of the component are not able to change. If somebody wants to make some changes, then it has to make changes to the library component, and put it again to the simulation studio. Is that correct?</font></font></font></span></p>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3">I create some new "outputs" to a library component, defining the name, the role, the dimension and the unit. How can I be sure that the program really "understands" what is about? For example, the new parameters created by me are total and beam solar radiation in 4 elevations. As a result I get error messages. On the other hand, if I copy the same component from another project (that solar radiation in 4 elevations are already set), I don't get error messages, but I cannot change some options (for example the unit of solar radiation that is an output). Have you got any idea about solving this problem?</font></span></p>

Using type 65a, gives me a result file in *.plt form. When I read the results using the software named "WordPad" I get the correct results. When I transform the same file in order to be able to read it with excel, the numbers seems to change. For example a temperature that is +2.0008191901532996E+01, is viewed through excel as 2,00E+17!!!! Is there I can do for that. Maybe using another software?</font></font></font></span></p>

Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2009 13:34:45 +0100<br>Subject: [TRNSYS-users] doubts with time step<br>Hi to everyone!<br>I have a small doubt with the time step.<br>If I have my time step set to 1 hour, the values I obtain of power, which output units are in W, are really energy units of value W*h, arenīt they?<br>
I allways thought it was like that, but now I am obtaining very low pic power for every hour in a photovoltaic array and I am begining to doubt.<br>
Thanks!<br>
