HPDMBatchRun is developed to run batch calculations based on the Heat Pump Design Model (HPDM) program developed by ORNL.

I/O format:

• input.txt, define one or two input parameters + start/interval; define output parameters
  • NPARA 3
  • INPUT 1:Vol_flow_rate_in:10:0.5:10 2:TI_C:75:1:5 2:MI_C:0.5:0.2:3
  • OUTPUT 6:TO_AIR 11:EER
• output.txt, summarize results
  • RUN 1:Vol_flow_rate_in 2:TI_C 2:MI_C 6:TO_AIR 11:EER
