[TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS-users Digest, Vol 93, Issue 36

[David BRADLEY]

Robert,
  There is not a way to directly transfer an IES VE model to TRNSYS. 
However, using loads generated by IES and imposing them on a TRNSYS 
system is fairly simple. To do so, you make use of one of two models 
that are available in the TESS Loads and Structures library: Type682 for 
imposing loads onto a liquid flow stream or Type693 for imposing loads 
on an air stream.  In so doing, you unfortunately lose the interaction 
between load and system.
Best,
  David
