Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Components written for TRNSYS - using in E+

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

Isidor:

Do you have the EnergyPlus source code?  It is not sufficient to just 
link a new algorithm to the EnergyPlus exe, you must modify the 
source code to provide calls to the new module.  You probably 
understand that part already.

Regarding TRNSYS components, the TRNSYS DLL is licensed solely for 
the purpose of simulating photovoltaics.  Any other TRNSYS components 
must be modified to run as EnergyPlus components.
