Re: detailed flat plate collector model

["Gilles Fraisse" <gilles.fraisse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

see the attached file ("excel" file).
It is a steady state model with 1 cover.
It's important to do the "iterations" (line 33 to 32).
I 've done a "TRNSYS dynamical model" but I have no "word paper" describing
the model. I m looking for experimentations (with flow variations : on-off
variations for exemple) to continue the validation of the model. 
see you later ,
