[TRNSYS-users] Fwd: Converging error

hotline hotline at transsolar.com
Wed Oct 17 01:21:53 PDT 2012


Dear Wang,

 

1) I use TRNSYS 16, there is no TSGRD in TYPE 56.
Ok. Please always include the TRNSYS release number .

 

2) The height over sea level of Default is 0 m I used.
Default values NEED to be adapted to your data!

 

3) You are right. I tried to use *.tm2 weather data, this Error
disappeared! 

As I mentioned previous, there must be an error in your data file. Link
the outputs to the online/printer for checking

 

4) Yes, The data reader Type 9 is placed after the building now for my
simulation., 

For a successive method all input data types should be placed at the
beginning. 

Check the component order and rearrange it.

Dear Marion,

Many thanks for your patient reply!

1) I use TRNSYS 16, there is no TSGRD in TYPE 56.
2) The height over sea level of Default is 0 m I used.
3) You are right. I tried to use *.tm2 weather data, this Error
disappeared! But my Userdefined weather data is TRN/TRY weather data.
Why does it result in aforementioned Errors (Converging error by my past
emails)? 
If I must use our own TRN/TRY weather data, how to avoid this Converging
error?
4) Yes, The data reader Type 9 is placed after the building now for my
simulation., Do you mean Type 9 should be placed before the Building
Type 56? Is Better?

Many thanks in advance!

Dear Wang, 

  

there are several issues within your simulation concerning the outside
longwave exchange of external surfaces 

  

1.)     You didn’t connect TSGRD such that it is set 0 =>  If you have
no information set it Tamb 

2.)     For Sky temperature calculation with Type 69, you forgot to
enter the height above sea level. 

3.)     You read the ambient temperature and the relative air humditiy
from a userdefined file by type 9 
instead of using the data from the weather file. 
This file wasn’t attached, but it might be an error source especially
when interpolating incorrect data.
For testing, please use the ambient temperature and rel. humidity from
the assigned weather file throughout your simulation.
Please check your userdefined data and the outputs of Type 9 WITHOUT
connecting them to TYPE 56. 

4.)     In addition, please check the component order. The data reader
Type 9 is placed after the building.

Dear Marion and TRNSYS Users,

Thanks for your reply!

I checked all you mentioned, I can't find any special/abnormal settings.
Furthermore, it runs well when the time step is 1 hour. For other steps
e.g. 0.1 h, 0.2 h or 0.5 h, it appears that ERROR.

Please help me have a look at the attached project if you are free.

Many thanks in advance!

Wang, 

  

This problem may occur from incorrect ambient condition settings: 

Please check the following inputs of Type 56 

1- TAMB 

2- RELHUMAMB 

3- TSKY 

4- TSGRD 

  

In addition make sure that in the BUI file the surface 

-         outside emissitive is ≤ 1 

-         outside convective heat transfer coefficient ist set to
reasonable value 

  

If the error presits, we need the complete project to give further
advice.

Karol, 

  

I noticed from your listing (*.lst) file that your working directory is
located on your computer's desktop directory. This is not recommended
due to the potential issues with the Windows OS system and write
privleges. I would first try changing your working directory to the
".\MyProjects" directory or in a folder right on the "C:" drive. I am
not certain that this is the issue with the TRNEXE, but if the problem
persists, please contact your distributor, techsupport at tess-inc.com. 

  

Best regards,

   I try to simulate dwelling with natural ventilation. I set some

   year for each zone with set temperature depending on time of day. 

     

   When I run my yearly simulation it stop in one moment and TRNEXE is
   frozen... There is even no error! Then I can only turn off TRNEXE. 

     

   Only think what appear (many times) in .lst file is 

     

   Notice: More than 6 iterations for internal regulation

Subject: Re: [TRNSYS-users] problem with iterations?? 

Karol, 

  

In general the notice has nothing to do with a frozen TRNEXE.exe, 

it is just an information. 

  

The message indicates that the internal controller for turning on the 

integrated heating/cooling has convergence problems and a deadband is
applied to promote convergence. 

This may be the case at the moment of turning ON or OFF something. 

After 6 internal iterations a deadband is added to promote convergence. 

If the convergence isn’t reached after 12 iterations a warning is
written to the lst/log file. 

  

Regards, 

  

Marion

Betreff: [TRNSYS-users] Converging error 

  

Dear all,

I met a converging error when I changed simulation time step 1 hour into
0.1 hour or 0.2 hour or 0.01 hour as follows:
 
*** Fatal Error at time   :      3972.000000
    Generated by Unit     :    56
    Generated by Type     :    56
    Message               : outside temperature of    2(external) wall
in zone   1at time  3972.00 not converged!

Please tell me some possible solutions for that if you know. The
attached is its Listing File.

Many thanks in advance!
