[TRNSYS-users] heating load - 1 mn time step

Hi Alain,

I guess that you are calculating the heating load with unlimited heating
power. If that's the case, you are requesting to type 56 that the building
reach the setpoint  temperature in 1 minute (that might be lot of energy
for such a small amount of time) and the sudden peaks in the heating load
appear at times where you have a change in the setpoint temperature. I will
suggest that you use a limited power for your heating device, or increase
your time step to a time that you find reasonable to heat your building. In
general, smaller time steps are "better", but if you are just interested in
calculating your heating load that's not necessarily true, specially if you
are interested in calculating peak power. Hope it helps, best regards

Angel
