Description
TRNSYS is a powerful software package for developing energy models of a huge range of thermal systems, and has been used by students, researchers, and companies around the world for the last 35 years.

But learning TRNSYS can be difficult. Until today, no course like this has existed, only expensive in-person courses are available in faraway locations on specific dates. Don’t waste your precious time trawling through endless PDFs, trying to make sense of complex example models and decrypting vague PhD thesis reports.

Join Alastair McDowell, TRNSYS Expert from EnergyAE Australia (Official TRNSYS Distributor) for a comprehensive TRNSYS course that will teach you all of the key concepts, how to use the modelling interfaces, and give you plenty of chances to practice and hone your skills. Explore all of the different component libraries available with many interesting case studies, including a building integrated PV/thermal system, and a thermal storage wall for a building.

Test yourself against frequent challenges and assignment projects. I demonstrate my solutions, and will answer any questions you have throughout the course. You will quickly be feeling confident to take on your personal TRNSYS projects.

Praise for the ‘Learn TRNSYS’ course:
“I was a complete beginner in TRNSYS before taking this course, but after watching all the videos and completing the assignment projects over 3 weeks, I now feel very confident with TRNSYS and look forward to starting my post doctorate work on modelling smart energy network systems.”
