Hossein,
If you have access to the TESS controls library, there is a Type980
(on/off time calculator) that will tell you when an hour has elapsed
since the circulating pump stopped. I think if you combine its output
with the result of an equation (or a thermostat model output) to watch
the return temperature you can get close to the control strategy that
you describe.
Kind regards,
David
