PCMSOL-1: a computer simulation code for a direct gain passive solar structure. Part II. PCMSOL-1 users guide
Abstract
PCMSOL-1 is a simulation code for a one room direct gain passive solar structure which allows the incorporation of phase change materials and/or other high thermal mass materials in the walls, ceiling, or floor. To lessen the possibility of erroneous but realistic looking results through misuse of PCMSOL-1, a detailed description of the numbering conventions, the variable input and output parameters, their specification, and their limitations is presented. Also included is a program flow chart and a well-documented listing.
