[esp-r] PCM Model - SPMCMP56

[Ali Fallahi]

Dear all,


I am trying to model PCM's thermal behavior using ESP-r. I already have DSC testing data and would like to include sub-cooling effect in simulation. As I understood from the mailing list, ESP-r has several PCM models available in the standard source-code (SPMCMP53, 54, 55 & 56). SPMCMP56 is an enhanced model, taking into account the sub-cooling effect. To activate this  model, several lines should be added to mscomp.db1 file.



- Is there anyone who has a mscomp.db1 file with added activating lines already included for SPMCMP56?

- What are the other required steps after replacing/editing the mscomp.db1 file in the /esp-r/database directory?


Thank you in advance for your help.
