The attached files present a demonstration of CONTAM-TRNSYS coupling using TRNSYS 18 and versions 3.4 of CONTAM and Type98. It is a 3 zone case based on the analytical test case presented in the following journal article:

Dols, W.S., S.J. Emmerich, and B.J. Polidoro, Coupling the Multizone Airflow and Contaminant Transport Software CONTAM with EnergyPlus using Co-simulation. Building Simulation, 2016. 9: p. 469-479.

The case has been modified to include a contaminant source to demonstrate passing contaminant results through Type98 to TRNSYS via CONTAM controls.

There are also two other TRNSYS-CONTAM Type 98 demonstration cases on the NIST Multizone Modeling website.
