TESS 18 – Component Libraries

What’s new in TESS Libraries 18

The latest release of the libraries features over 350 models/routines for studying today’s most pressing simulation topics ranging from de- carbonization to renewable energy to electrification while maintaining and expanding the libraries for the always important building energy systems, solar energy applications, thermal storage and ground coupling.

Each component in these libraries has been extensively tested and comes with online documentation, source code, sample projects and free technical support. Each of these libraries comes in a format compatible with the TRNSYS Simulation Studio front-end (source code, documentation, online help, icon, etc.) but may also be used outside that environment.

The source code is provided for each of these models so that they can be quickly and easily modified if the user wishes to make changes to the model. Each of the component libraries comes with one or more Studio/TRNSYS projects that demonstrate typical uses of the component models found in that library.

In this new package, we’ve included 80 brand new component models that have never before been released.

These are the 14 libraries available for TRNSYS 18:

• Application Components
• Controller Components
• Electrical Components
• Geothermal Heat Pump (GHP) Components
• Ground Coupling Components
• HVAC Equipment Components
• Hydronics Components
• Loads and Structures Components
• Optimization Components
• Solar Collector Components
• Storage Tank Components
• Utility Components
• Cogeneration (CHP) Components
• High Temperature Solar Components
