[TRNSYS-users] solar domestic hot water example diverter

[Jeff Thornton]

It's a tempering valve to limit the temperature of the water being delivered to the load.  A portion of the  cool mains water bypasses the tank and mixes back in with the hot water leaving the tank.

Now you already provide a  solar domestic hot water system so I decided to use that as basic and change mine with the help of this one. But one thing I don’t understand is how the diverter works. You have your load profile and then you let It go through the diverter, who seperates it into two flow one to the tee piece and one to the tank. Me is not totally clear how it is decided when it goes to the tank or when to the Tee Piece. I found out about the control signal but I monitored this one as well but did not understand how it is calculated because the formula in the small description is wrong.
