In order to get the simulation to run you can put in the same COP
and capacity data twice into the file, once with a 1.0 part load
ratio and again with a lower part load ratio. I want to stress,
though, that while that will make the simulation run, you aren't
going to get meaningful results out of your simulation unless you
can find some part load data. Otherwise the chiller is going to run
at its full load capacity and COP no matter what the inlet
conditions to it are.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Sir,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to simulate a small hot water
absorption chiller (Rotartica Type) on TRNSYS. The data (COP
and Cooling capacity) of this chiller are only available for
design fraction at full load.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> However, when I tried to simulate the
solar chiller using an external file that I created, I get an
error: I must have 2 design fraction minimum in the external
file. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have an idea about this?<o:p></o:p></p>
