[TRNSYS-users] TRNSYS crashes with no error message, but a lot of warnings refering to the PSYCHROMETRICS routine

 David and C K Le,

Thanks for your advice regarding my problem. I have now managed to trace
the error to a specific component or group of components, and the
simulation runs without crashing when I turn them off. I still have to find
what is wrong with those components, but it's easier when you know where to
look.

Best regards
