RE: [TRNSYS-users] Type 8, error#206



Dear Diego,

Thanks for your reply. Setting all infiltration values to zero does not
help. I use succesive subst now. Also the infiltration was not very large
anyway (qv=0.625 l/sm2); lowering it would not be realistic in this builing
(atrium with glass outside walls).

Kind regards
Stefan

Dear Stefan,

 From the description of your problem, it may be possible that the value 
of infiltration is too high.   Therefore, the state of the system 
differs significantly from one state to the other.  I would recommend 
that you reduce the value of infiltration and see if this helps.
Please try this solution with the successive substitution solver.  
Powell's method was written in order to improve convergence of the 
system, by solving a reduced set of coupled equations/components. I 
don't see why the successive substitution solver would not work.
Best regards,

Diego
