[TRNSYS-users] small mass flow in TABS

[Karol BANDURSKI]

David,

 

Both this errors have appeared when I decrease mass flow rate two times and
increase number of loops 10 times.

 

I don't know way, but I don't have option "autosegmentation" (print screen
enclosed).

 

It seems to me that increase of loops number has not change minimum allowed
mass flow rate.

 

Kind regards,

Karol

Karol,

  I do not think that the problem with the matrix inversion and the low flow
rate in the active layer are necessarily related. I'm not sure what to
suggest about the matrix inversion. The active layer model has a minimum
allowable flow rate that is based on pipe spacing, the thickness of the
layer(s) in which the pipes are embedded and the area of the floor. If you
want to give a lower flow rate then you need to segment the floor, which
means treating the floor like it was a few floors in series. Enter the
desired minimum mass flow rate in the active layer definition screen. If it
is below the minimum "allowed" mass flow rate then you'll have the option to
segment the floor.

kind regards,

 David

Dear Experts

 

I have problem with simulation TABS with specific mass flow rate about 5.4
kg/hm2.

 

There are two errors:

1)      Specific fluid mass flow of active layer in surface  894 below
minimum value of 8.90 kg/m2h Please, increase the minimum mass flow rate or
use the autosegmentation feature of TRNBuild for subdividing the surface.

2)      Subroutine INVERT was called from subroutine INVPAR with a singular
matrix!

 

I have increase number of loops 10 times but nothing change.

 

It is possible to do simulation with so low mass flow rate?

 

Kind regards,
Karol
