[TRNSYS-users] Adsorption chiller, Error related to enthalpy

Sotiris,
  It may be that the problem lies inside the code in an internal 
iteration (in other words not in a place that you can get to without 
running the simulation through a Fortran compiler. I would start by 
disconnecting the inputs to the fan coil (set them equal to constant 
values if you can) and then watch the outputs of whatever component is 
just upstream to make sure that the air state and water state going in 
to the fan coil is realistic.
Kind regards,
 David
