Florian,
i have problems with the use of type 4e storage tank ( trnsys15). the first message is : ***** WARNING *****THE SET POINT TEMERATURE OF THE UNIT 37 TYPE 4 STORAGE TANK IS HIGHER THANTHE BOILING TEMPERATURE. THE BOILING TEMPERATURE WILL BE USED AS THE SET POINT.but my boiling temperature is 100 and my set point temp. 55 or 0 , cause i do not use the aux heater.the seond message is: ***** ERROR ***** TRNSYS ERROR # 103 UNIT 37 TYPE 4 24 PARAMETERS WERE SPECIFIED, 22 ARE REQUIRED CHECK COMPONENT CONFIGURATION 8 STORAGE VARIABLES ALLOCATED FOR UNIT 37, TYPE 4 ENDING AT 641 ***** ERROR ***** TRNSYS ERROR # 103 UNIT 37 TYPE 4 BAD PARAMETER OR NUMBER OF PARAMETERS CHECK COMPONENT CONFIGURATION
It looks like Type 4 expects fewer parameters than what you are specifying, which probably also explains why the setpoint and/or boiling point are not what you think they are. If you are not using IISiBat, please check your component configuration very carefully, you probably have a typo in your parameters. If you are using IISiBat, please send your project file to your distributor so they can identify the cause of the problem.
...... is there a max. number of type 4 in one simulation? i´m using 5.
No, there is no maximum number of Type 4 units in a simulation.
