      It should be possible to use the PID controller to obtain the
    outlet temperature that you want but without having your project, it
    isn't possible to know what is incorrect. This is the kind of
    question you should address to your distributor.<br>
    <br>
      As a side note, if you have access to the TESS HVAC library, there
    are a number of heat exchanger models in that library that are set
    up to allow control based on outlet temperature of either the hot or
    the cold side.<br>
    Kind regards,<br>
