    <p>Siliang,</p>
    <p>  This sounds like an issue that should be sent to your TRNSYS
      distributor for tech support. Trnsys18's TRNBuild should be able
      to correctly read and interpret Trnsys17 building description
      files. If you aren't sure who to contact, please send me a direct
      email and I can point you in the right direction.</p>
    <p>kind regards,</p>
    <p> David</p>

        <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">We recently
            upgraded our TRNSYS17 into the new TRNSYS18. However, when I
            open my previous TRNBuild files (TRNSYS17) in TRNSYS18, the
            internal gains (i.e. people, lights and equipment) have been
            significantly changed compare to their original values (of
            course I’ve unified the units for the comparisons). For
            dealing with issue, I’ve tried to changed those values in
            TRNSYS18 and made them to be identical with the original
            values (TRNSYS17), for instance, I made the “radiative heat
            + convective heat = the original heat gain”. It should
            produce the same results as what they are in TRNSYS17, but
            the heating and cooling loads are significantly changed
            (e.g. cooling load is 360kW in TRNSYS17, but it is 380kW in
            TRNSYS18).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

            parameters such as the thermal properties of building
            envelope were not changed in TRNSYS18. As such, I will say
            the only issue is come from the internal gain setting of the
            regime types.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
