Christos,
  I did not take a very thorough look at your files but could it be 
that the internal gains in your space are high enough and the 
infiltration of fresh air is low enough that in fact the higher 
insulating walls are causing a heat build-up during the summer months 
and that indeed TRNSYS is showing you a correct phenomenon?
Cheers,
  David
