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



Hi Stefan,

Please feel free to send me your project files. I will be glad to try to find the problem.

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

Dear all,



I have an atrium with temperature controlled (on/off) natural ventilation in TRNSYS with TRNFLOW. I use a 3stage room thermostat type 8b to control ventilation openings at the roof and on the 1st floor. The control signal of the type 8 gives stranges results though and tends to oscillate for no appearant reason. When I use Powells method, the signal is okay but somewhere halfway the simulation (begin of summer), I get error 206 at multiple times:



TRNSYS ERROR # 206

THE SOLUTION CAN NOT BE FOUND AT TIME 2532.62



Finally resulting in



TRNSYS ERROR # 204

THE NUMBER OF UNSUCCESSFUL TIMESTES EXCEEDS LIMITS



Does anyone have an idea what can be wrong? Decreasing the timestep has no effect; application of a deadband also does not help; the errors occur earlier in the simulation when I use a larger deadband...



Kind regards
