[TRNSYS-users] Water-water heat pump and domestic hot water tank

[Jeff Thornton]

Luminita,

1 - are you operating at sufficiently small timesteps to properly control the system?  Ideally in the 1-3 minute range.

2 - did you size your heat pump to meet the load or just use a default size?

3 - do you have your controllers set up properly to turn on and off the heat pump based on the tank temperatures?

4 - have you watched all the outputs from your models using an online plotter?  Have you used the trace feature to see which model is causing the problem?
