Augustin,
Assuming no infiltration/ventilation the behaviour of the zone air
temperature as well as the operative temperature after switching
off gains depend on the surface temperatures.
I run the attached files, but the entities on the online weren’t
sufficient to see your problem (Top and Text).
If you talk about temperature are you looking at Top or Tair?
You may check surface temperatures TSI and the NTYPE QCOMI for heat
transfer.
I suggest add Onlines with all relevant entities like TSI, TAIR, QCOMI,
rad. GAINS, conv. Gains etc. .

Dear Aaron,
Thanks for answering so quickly.
Changing the infiltration rates (setting it to 0) doesn't change the
phenomenon I describe... I had tried but the decrease can still be
observed. Concerning the weather data, I wanted to simplify as much as I
could the model, to be sure the problem wasn't the result of the weather
variations. If you delete the heating device (or set it to 0) and the
soil temperature too, you will see that the temperature decreases
logically up to 0°C.
The conditions for the external walls are set to a default value 0, in
order to be sure the evolution of the temperature remains constant
(increase when there is a heating device and decrease when there is no
heating device). In that way, the temperature shouldn't increase after
stopping the heating device (it is the case in my simulation for the
third time step following the interruption of heating), and it shouldn't
decrease so fast for the two time steps following this interruption
(comparing with the evolution after 4 time steps = 1 hour).

Augustin,
You infiltration rates seem relatively high (0.6ACH), if it is this high
I would assume you are in a windy location, or the building is old and
leaky (or you include some mechanical ventilation in this number).
Since the building is well insulated, I would assume the problem lies
within your control (signal) scheme, or double checking your ACH
assumption against the results of a blower door test. I use the data
reader and TMY2 weather data to define the conditions for external
walls. I did not understand how you defined your conditions for the
external walls, that may be something you want to double check on, I
cannot say if it is incorrect or correct, but may be a likely source of
your problems.

Dear all,
I sent a mail two weeks ago to expose the problem I had but it was not
very clear. So I have made an Excel file to illustrate it.The model has
been simplified.
It represents a two rooms building, with no internal gain. The outside
temperature remains constant to 0°C and all the other parameters used by
the .bui are equals to a default value: 0.
The only parameter which is a variable input of the model is a heating
power. It remains constant until the steady state is obtained and then
it is put to 0.
The variation of the temperature, for the three time steps following the
stop of the heating device seems to be weird. The decrease of the
temperature is very fast, then it increases (???) before going down with
an acceptable derivative value (around 0.3°C/hr).
Find attached the model I have used.
Can anyone explain to me the reason of this phenomenon?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
