Re: [TRNSYS-users] Cooled Beams

[David Bradley <bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Alastair,
  Some months ago, we were asked to submit a proposal to write a TRNSYS 
chilled beam model. Unfortunately the project never got off the ground but 
from the background research that we did, it appeared as though using 
manufacturer's catalog data combined with some physics was going to be by 
far the best option, particularly in the case of passive beams where the 
air flow rate is driven by natural convection over the cool coils.
Cheers,
 David
