[TRNSYS-users] Type 927 and type 4a

Alain,
   If you are using Type15 to read and process your weather data then 
you can get the hour of the day from that component. If you are not 
using Type15 for weather then you can use Type21 (Utility: Time Values: 
Type21).

   In order to run your heat pump when there is a water draw on your 
tank you will need to write an equation that looks something like the 
following:

onDraw = GT(mDraw,0)

the variable "onDraw" will have a value of 1 when "mDraw" is greater 
than zero. You will need to make "mDraw" an input to the equation block 
and connect the flow rate of your water draw to it.

   Once you have all the different pieces of your control computed 
individually (control based on temperature, control based on time of 
day, control based on water draw) you will need to write an equation 
that combines them into a single control signal that has a value of 1 
when the heat pump should be on and a value of 0 when the heat pump 
should be off. To combine them, you can either multiply them all 
together (in which case the heat pump will only be on if all of the 
individual control criteria are true) or you can use boolean functions 
to combine them in some other way. For example:

onHP = OR(OR(onDraw,onThermostat),onTimeOfDay)

Regards,
  David
