[TRNSYS-users] radiant heating walls

[David BRADLEY]

Gabriela,
   There is a radiator panel component available in the TESS HVAC 
Library for Trnsys17 (Type1271). I would recommend that you use 
whichever model more accurately represents the situation in your 
building; if the walls have piping embedded in them then the active 
layer would be the more correct modeling methodology. If there are 
radiant panels mounted to the walls by standoffs, then I would lean 
towards using Type1271.
Kind regards,
  David
