RE: control volume method by TRNSYS

[Michaël Kummert <kummert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear F. Ajmi,

TRNSYS allows you to program any model in FORTRAN and makes it very easy to
combine your model with other components (e.g. to simulate heat storage).
The standard TRNSYS library does not include a ground temperature model, but
non-standard TRNSYS components are available to simulate a simple ground
temperature profile or detailed heat storage. Please have a look on the
following webpage for more information on non-standard components:

Regards,

Michaël Kummert
