IEA SHC Task 38 Solar Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Subtask C2-A, November 9, 2009 TRNSYS Alexander Morgenstern Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE, Freiburg, Germany TRNSYS is a commercially available energy simulation tool designed for the transient simulation of thermal systems and multizone buildings. The software is generally used by engineers and researchers for the validation of new energy concepts for simple applications like solar domestic hot water systems as well as complex systems for testing of control strategies like buildings with solar heating and cooling equipment (e.g. thermally activated slabs, capillary tube systems and chilled ceilings) with consideration of the occupant behavior. An extensive standard component library and a large number of AddOns like geothermal and heat pump libraries or air flow models allows the use for a wide field of application. The open, modular structure of TRNSYS afford the extension and the design of models in dependence of the user requirements. This provides a basis for the coupled simulation of the building and the active system. TRNSYS offer dynamic building simulation with an arbitrary number of thermal zones, different walls and windows, also buffer zones like double facades, furthermore the consideration of convective and radiative internal loads, the influence of shading devices as well as natural and mechanical ventilation and interzonal air change. A special building editor is available to configure the building type of TRNSYS. The support for the integration of control strategies for shading, ventilation, heating and airconditioning as well as the import of weather data is implemented in the software. Time steps can be defined by user. All common programming languages (C++, PASCAL, FORTRAN, …) can be used by developers to add custom component models. TRNSYS allows e.g. simulations for the following applications: - Solar systems (solar hot water, solar combi systems and electric systems with PV) - Low energy buildings and HVAC systems - Renewable energy systems - Cogeneration and fuel cells More information: http://sel.me.wisc.edu/trnsys/ ; www.trnsys.de Example: graphical display of a building load simulation with TRNSYS.

IEA SHC Task 38 Solar Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Subtask C2-A, November 9, 2009 EASYCOOL Edo Wiemken, Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE, Freiburg, Germany The simulation tool was developed in the frame of the project Solar Air-Conditioning in Europe (SACE), funded by the European Commission. It was originally designed to perform easy to programme applications and fast simulation runs for energetic and economic performance studies in SACE and in IEA Task 25. EasyCool provides 11 pre-defined system configurations for solar thermally driven cooling applications, of which 4 configurations are foreseen for reference calculatios (non-solar, conventional system solutions). The program reads annual time series with hourly building load data and meteorological data of the respective site (these data set has to be prepared in advance) and calculates annual energetic and econonomic performance data as well as environmental figures such as CO 2 savings. With each simulation run, a range of system size (collector area and hot water storage size) is varied. In input boxes, the most relevant average performance coefficients, power consumptions (pums, fans, ..) collector coeffictients and component costs are to be defined. A special economic input box requires cost data for installation, planning, maintenance, interest rate, fuel, water and electricity costs, etc. Pre-defined system configurations, accessible in EasyCool. System configurations 8 to 11 are for reference system calculations. page 15
