[TRNSYS-users] How to model water radiators in simulation studio Trnsys V18 ?

[David BRADLEY via TRNSYS-users]

Paul,

   There is a radiator model in the TESS HVAC library. There is not a 
radiator model in the standard v18 library.

   You may be able to approximate a radiator by defining a combination 
of radiative and convective gains in your building zone and then finding 
an algorithm that equates the hot water temperature and flow rate into 
the radiator (as well as the radiator surroundings temperature) to the 
amount of energy that it gives off.

kind regards,

  David
