[TRNSYS-users] type 928

Gabriela,

  There are a lot of possibilities that might cause something like this. 
Things that I would look at are whether there is the correct VENTILATION 
set up in each zone of the building. I have made the mistake a number of 
times in v18 of defining a VENTILATION in TRNBuild but then forgetting 
to select it at the zone level. I would also check the flow rate of 
liquid that is going into and out of the fan coils in the zones that are 
not behaving. It may be that if the zones are all being fed by a single 
pump that there isn't enough flow available to feed all the fan coils 
the amount of liquid that they want.

kind regards,

  David
