Dear
Trnsys Users,
I am introducing
myself to the features of TRNSYS gradually, the most recent project with
which requires some optimisation of parameters in a Type56 multi-zone building.
I am using GenOpt to call a *.bui template (the *.dck remains the same and
as such is not altered by GenOpt) to alter the parameters of an active slab
heating layer; in particular, variations
over the pipe spacing and thickness of the
slab.
I have tried the
example from Michaël Kummert (Using GenOpt with TRNSYS16 and Type56 -
2007-02-15) which works perfectly. However when I apply the method to my
project, GenOpt parses the GenOptRun.dck to TRNExe.exe (in which my *.bui
file is defined) but the simulation
hangs in the first time step
indefinitely. The last lines
printed to the
GenOptRun.lst file are following:
*** The TRNSYS

order:

Unit
# 31 Type #

Unit # 33 Type

Interestingly enough
when I call the same GenOptRun.dck that GenOpt tries to parse to TRNExe from a command line
directly (e.g. 'C:\Trnsys16_1\Exe\TRNExe.exe
"C:\Trnsys16_1\MyProjects\project1\GenOptRun.dck" /n') the simulation runs
without hanging.
Any ideas?
Thanks in
advance,
