<p>Bishan,</p>
<p> Unfortunately GenOpt cannot access anything but the *.dck file.
What you'll need to do is to use the Type534 proforma that does
not use an external file but which instead defines all the
parameters directly in the input file. There are a few versions of
that Type534 proforma available in the direct access tool already.
If you do not see the configuration you need (perhaps yours has
more heat exchangers or a different kind of heat exchanger) then I
can make one for you.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>

<div>Hi Everyone,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am using TESS tank 534 as an storage tank in my solar
combisystem model. This type of tank has external file to put
its parameters and input values. While I was editing the
input file (.dck) for the optimization, replacing the
numerical values with variable names, I also did the same with
type 534 in its external file. I replaced the numerical value
of the storage volume with %STO-VOL%( this volume is defined
as 300 Ltrs in TRNSYS model) but when I try to run the
simulation, it gives me error saying it has the illegal
parameter. When I give it numerical value, there is no error
in the simulation. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I want to optimize this storage tank volume as well as it
is a crucial part of the model. Could anyone help me
with this?</div>
<div>Thank you</div>
