    <p>Ghady Dib,</p>
    <p> If Type164 is not appropriate to what you are trying to do then
      you may need to write your own model of the compressed air
      storage. The model could be implemented in Excel, Matlab, or EES
      if you do not want to develop it within TRNSYS's native
      environment.</p>
    <p>kind regards,</p>
