[TRNSYS-users] PV panel for water heating - Problem with electric heating device

[Jeff Thornton]

Can you please send the error message that is written in the list file.
Without that, or the Singapore weather file, it's hard to diagnose from
your description.

I used a master-slave heating device (Type 2270) to simulate heating from PV panel through the lower element and a back up heating (in case the set point temperature is not reached) through the upper element.

I already tried to link directly the PV panel to the heating device, to change type 2270 into 2 separate electric heating devices (Type 1226). The simulation stops at exactly the same moment. Could you help me please ?
