<br>Hi Matt,<br> <br>
i have found the soloution, by connecting the PID controller directly to a heat exchanger and not to the pump to control the flow rate at the secondary side of the heat exchanger.<br><br>I had the type 539 from TESS solar library but I wanted to experience it with a normal collector.<br><br><br>Thanks,<br>Shahrdad<br>

It has this built in controller where all you have to do is send that control signal to the variable speed pump that is "upstream" of the solar collector in your simulation.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Matt Duffy<br> <br> <div style="background-position: center top; background-repeat: repeat-x;"><strong>----- Original Message -----</strong><br><strong>From:</strong> "Shahrdad JavidRad" <shahrdad@live.de> <br><strong>Sent:</strong> Wed, February 9, 2011 9:33<br><strong>Subject:</strong> [TRNSYS-users] constant outlet temperature with controller type 22<br><br> <div class="ecxPrivateMsgDiv"> <style>
