Unfortunately, I was not able to locate the source code of that Type. It 
seems to be an early variant of what is now Type 180 (in HYDROGEMS, 
which is now part of the standard library in TRNSYS 16) where the 
equation for Tc, the cell temperature, is modified to take PCM's into 
account.
The equation for Tc can be easily identified in Type 180, so I assume it 
would be possible to take PCM's in consideration without too much effort 
by modifying that equation. Or may be someone on this list still has a 
copy of that component with the PCM's in it, in which case I would be 
pleased to add it to the TRNLIB section...

Kind regards,
