<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Dear TRNSYS users,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Recently I have tried to make a three years long simulation with Trnsys 14.2 and I noticed a strange behavior of Type 16. In order to diagnose the problem, I logged all type 16 inputs and outputs. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have compared recorded inputs and outputs for each of the three years simulated. All the inputs were matching (no wonder, since they were supplied either directly by weather data reader, or calculated based on weather data, which is 365 days long). However, there were significant differences between the outputs. Interesting thing that I noted is that outputs were always matching during first 15 hours of a day, but after that differences appeared almost randomly, until the time of the sunset. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The parameters that I am using for the Type 16 are given below:</FONT>
