Re: [TRNSYS-users] Writing deck files in text editor/TRNSYS 16



Dear George,

Thanks for sending your comments. Feed back is always valuable.

Of course there are the examples, but I would find it a lot more helpful to see what has changed and how in a separate chapter. On top of that if you start writing your own types it's a lot easier not to bother with creating a GUI frontend for each new type.

That chapter is still in the works and will be available shortly. It will make up the first half of Manual 07-TRNEdit. To give you a preview, however, the syntax of the deck is largely unchanged from version 15. The most substantive change is that you must now include the "VERSION 16" or "VERSION 15" keyword at the beginning of your input file and you must also change the SIMULATION card so that the simulation start time is the hour of the year at which you want your simulation to begin, no longer the time at the end of the first time step of your simulation. There are a number of new keywords but they are all optional and have default values. Information on them and on their syntax is contained in the 07-TRNEdit manual.
Kind regards,
David
