Simulation of water cooling circuit

Hi

I'm working on a water cooling circuit, where I have a heat tank with a heat source that's on/off in 5 min. intervals, and a buffer tank, that's constantly cooled by a heat exchanger. There's a pump, that cycles water between the two tanks to keep a temperature of 15 °C (+/- 0.5 °C) in the heat tank.

I've tried to programme the on/off function of the pump to keep the temperature of the heat tank within the required interval, which seems to work, but would like to know if there's a cleaner way to achieve what I want, or is it done the way I've done it? Besides I would like to have the ability to change the number of cycles the calculation runs for, which is done manually in the attached example. Can this be done?

Thanks in advance

Didn't seem to get the file attached.

I hope you can find your way around it (don't mind the comments in danish).
