[TRNSYS-users] Problem of convergence in modelling an heat pump in off state

[h8304506@hkusua.hku.hk]

Dear Trnsys users.

I try to simulate a heat pump system from the basic component level  
(compressor, condenser coil, expansion valve and evaporator coil).  I  
have created separate proformas for each component, and linked them up  
in a closed loop.  However, I get one problem when writing the source  
codes.  How can I define the output of each component when the system  
is off (say by using a scheduler or temperature controller), but still  
maintain convergence in the closed loop?  Your reply is highly  
appreciated.
