[TRNSYS-users] questions about type 56 building model and chiller

[David BRADLEY]

Zhuo Li,
  Without seeing your project files, it is not possible to determine the 
cause of the unrealistically high temperatures. I would recommend that 
you send your project files to your distributor's technical support 
hotline for assistance.

   The warnings that you are receiving may well be related to the high 
temperatures. Performance maps in TRNSYS usually contain data for a 
range of inlet conditions. For example the samp_c.dat file contains 
performance data for chillers whose return chilled water temperatures 
are between 4.4C and 10C. If the water returning to the chiller is above 
10C then the performance data returned from the map may not be valid. If 
the problem happens only a few times during the simulation then it can 
usually be ignored. If the situation arises often then either the system 
configuration or the data file need to be changed so that valid 
performance data is returned.

kind regards,
  David
