David,
Unfortunetaly I don´t have access to the TESS library. I´m sorry but I 
dont understand what you were meaning with: /"If you do not, then I 
would imagine that you might be able to come up with a simplified set of 
equations that would give you the gains to the space that you need. "/

Do you mean that I use the GAINS to adjust the radiative and convective 
part ? But how to take the room temperature into account by also 
considering the outlet temperature out of my storage ?? Isn´t there also 
a way to work with HEATING INPUTS ?! I still dont have an idea how to 
cover my heat demand by using the outlet temperature :(

Best,
Michael
