Buildings.Fluid.SolarCollectors.Types.Area

Enumeration to define the area type used in solar collector calculation

Information

Enumeration used to define the different types of area measurements used in solar collector testing.

Modelica definition

Buildings.Fluid.SolarCollectors.Types.NumberSelection

Enumeration of options for how users will specify the number of solar collectors in a system

Information

Enumeration used to define the different methods of declaring solar thermal system size.

Modelica definition
