Stand-alone usage of HCE module was created by solarjoe
Hello,

we need to make a sensitivity analysis on different HCE parameters.
Is it somehow possible to use HCE module of the PT physical model
for that, e.g. by using the SDK?
So we wouldn't have to implement the thermal resistance network.

Kind regards,
Joe

I saw that the HCE module is derived from Forristall's EES code.
So this would be one possibility, but it would be more convenient
for us to use the SDK (Python, Matlab).

I am trying to get Forristall's EES code to work, but it is a bit annoying to format
the code copied from the PDF (line breaks, indention).

Also the interpolation datasets used by INTERPOLATE('...') are not available.

Do you know if it is possible to download the *.ees file somewhere or could you provide it to me?
This would be very helpful!

Hello,

The SDK provides access to the system models (physical trough, molten salt power tower, etc.) as a whole, so you cannot use it to access individual components such as the HCE.

I will follow up on your questions about the EES model.

Best regards,
Paul.
