<p class=MsoNormal>Hi ALL,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am currently working on my undergraduate report on radiant
panel cooling, with TRNSYS as my main simulation software.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have modeled a simple multi-zone building using Simulation
Studio, with Singapore weather (TMY2) data as the weather input. I was able to
run the simulation to obtain the temperature profile of the zone. I was
wondering what are the appropriate steps to determine the cooling load for my
zone. The last time I checked, my simulation provided zero values for both the
QSENS and QLATD.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Also, I aim to connect my building model to an external
cooling equipment. I have created the three inputs suggested by the TRNSYS
manual ie VENTILATION AIRCHANGE, TEMPERATURE and HUMIDITY. I attempted to model
a simple constant air volume system, consisting of these components
(Type 667b Air-Air Heat Recovery, Type 754h Heating Coil, Type 752h Cooling
Coil, Type 642-2 Fan) but simulation returned exactly the same profile as before
the equipment is added. What could be wrong or missing in my configuration? In
addition, I realized that Type 56 has no air flow as output, so how do I link
the model to Type667b (i.e. exhaust air from zone to Type 667b)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>As I am new to the software, any help is greatly
appreciated!<o:p></o:p></p>
