I would recommend doing that and obtaining the Type1231 radiator. If I did not have that option, I do not think I would pursue active layers. Rather, I would probably just using a pipe and specify the the loss coefficient, then couple that with Type56 via a GAIN input. The validity is questionable, but it might get you close.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Matt Duffy<br><br><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><strong>----- Original Message -----</strong><br><strong>From:</strong> "NOM KARAS" <<a href="mailto:nomkaras@gmail.com" target="_blank">nomkaras@gmail.com</a>> <br><strong>Sent:</strong> Thu, October 27, 2011 5:47<br><strong>Subject:</strong> [TRNSYS-users] radiator_modelling<o:p></o:p></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=5 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'></td></tr><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal>Dear Trnsys users,<br><br>I want to modell a classic heating system with radiators (that use hot water, heated from a central boiler). I have read previous threads that talk about a component of transsolar (type 362 ) that simulates such a radiator and found that TESS has a similar component type-1231. Unfortunately I don't have these components (I have an older version of TESS library) and I wondered if i could simulate somehow the radiator with type-56 (trnbuild) by using an active layer. I know that active layers are traditionally used for internal floor heating, but I made this consideration :<br><br>To add to my heating zone an external wall <u>with active layer</u> and <u>adiabatic conditions</u> on the surface looking to the enviroment ( active layers cant unfortunately be used in internal walls) that has wall area equal to the desired radiator (and by equal i mean the total ! surface of the radiator that takes part in the radiation-convection&nb sp; heat exchange).<br><br>I would appreciate your opinion on this,<br><br>with regards Nomikos.<o:p></o:p></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><hr size=1 width="100%" noshade style='color:#A0A0A0' align=center></div><pre>_______________________________________________<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>TRNSYS-users mailing list<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>TRNSYS-users@cae.wisc.edu<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><a href="https://mailman.cae.wisc.edu/listinfo/trnsys-users" target="_blank">https://mailman.cae.wisc.edu/listinfo/trnsys-users</a><o:p></o:p></pre></div></td></tr></table></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br><br>---------- <span style='font-family:"MS Gothic"'>已</span><span style='font-family:MingLiU'>转发邮件</span> ----------<br>From: "Matt Duffy" <<a href="mailto:duffy@tess-inc.com">duffy@tess-inc.com</a>><br>To: <a href="mailto:trnsys-users@cae.wisc.edu">trnsys-users@cae.wisc.edu</a><br>Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 07:59:24 -0500 (CDT)<br>Subject: Re: [TRNSYS-users] weather files<br>There is also an example of Type9 with Type16 in that same directory ".\Examples\Weather Data" <br><br>Regards,<br><br>Matt<br><br><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><strong>----- Original Message -----</strong><br><strong>From:</strong> "Timothy McDowell" <<a href="mailto:mcdowell@tess-inc.com" target="_blank">mcdowell@tess-inc.com</a>> <br><strong>Sent:</strong> Thu, October 27, 2011 7:52<br><strong>Subject:</strong> Re: [TRNSYS-users] weather files<o:p></o:p></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=5 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%'><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>You can use the Type9 data reader to read-in your data and the Type16 radiation processor to determine the radiation on different surfaces.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Tim<br><br><br><br><br>---------------------------------- <br>Timothy McDowell <br>Executive !
