Solahart non-domestic heat stores

["Joe Coventry" <Joe.Coventry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear TRNSYS users

Has anyone ever simulated a Solahart non-domestic thermal storage tank?
They are made up of a number of their regular domestic storage tanks,
stacked on top of each other horizontally.  These tanks are then enclosed
inside a big tank.  The heat transfer fluid from the closed collector loop
is circulated through the larger tank.  The smaller tanks contain the
potable water for DHW usage, or can contain heating hot water or both. The
smaller tank walls act as the heat exchange surface. Technical details can
be found on the Solahart website.

If anyone has modeled these tanks or something similar, I would be grateful
if you could email me.

Thanks

Joe Coventry
