Re: [TRNSYS-users] calling sequence
David,
Actually, I did'nt understand why I should use the storage procedure. I
use it already to store the values for 168 timesteps, to control the
drift speed. But that's not the problem.
My problem is the following.
If I plug the iterative controller directly to my new type, and my
type's output to the building, I get inconsistent results. The iterative
controller oscillates : I think it's normal : If its output is limited
by my type (and it will, since the iterative controller "tries" a wide
range of values), the minimizing algorithm does'nt work, as a change
does not make any difference in Qsens (the function to be minimized)
since it is still the same setpoint sent to the building model.
...I hope I'm clear enough...
My idea was :
During the iterative calls, not interfere in the output made by the
iter. controller. Once the simulation has converged, control the
setpoint defined by the iter. controller, and change it if the drift
speed is too high.
I made one test that does not work. I just want to :
- during iterative calls, send the iterative controller output to the
building trough a type.
- for last convergence call, send simply, let's say 19°C, to the building.
I write smthg like that :
/Perform any after iteration.../
if(info(13)>0
Tout=19
endif
/this is an iterative call.../
if(info(13)=0
Tout=Tin
endif
out(1)=Tout
And I get always (iterative AND post-convergence call) the input
temperature as outputs.
Anyway, thanks for the help!
Regards.

Thibaut,
I think you need to use the storage structures (getStorageVars() and
setStorageVars()). I am not sure that I have completely understood
what you are trying to do but I think that what you want to do is
store 2 values in the global storage structure. One of those values is
the final calculated temperature of the last time step and the other
one is the calculated temperature of the last iteration. Each time you
enter the Type on an iterative call, you can call getStorageVars() and
base your calculations on the final temperature of the previous time
step. At the end of your calculations during an iterative call, you
call setStorageVars() and update ONLY the calculated value of the last
(just completed) iteration. Then, after convergence has been reached,
you call getStorageVars(), retrieve the value that you calculated at
the end of the last iteration and replace the value of the final
calculated temperature at the end of the time step. Then call
setStorageVars() again. Again, I may be misinterpreting what you are
trying to do but hopefully the above is close enough that you can
figure out how to make getStorageVars() and setStogageVars() to work
appropriately for your situation.
Kind regards,
David
Dear Trnsys users,
I am modelling a setpoint that is drifting inside a dwelling (17-23°C
for instance).
So I use an iterative feedback controller, with upper and lower
setpoints, which minimize abs(Qheat)+abs(Qcool). It works very weel.
Now I am writing a type, that controls (+/-1°C per week for instance)
that temperature 's drift. But to get the iterative feedback
controller working, I must not limit its output during the
iterations, otherwise the results are not consistent. So I thought I
couls let the outputs inchanged in the iterative calls (info(13)=0)
and change them in the post convergence call.
e.g.
/Perform any after iteration.../
if(info(13)>0
Tout=Tin+.../
Limitation de la vitesse de dérive/
endif
/this is an iterative call.../
if(info(13)=0
Tout=Tin
endif
out(1)=Tout
Obviously, this isn't working, I get the input temperature as an
output at every call, without any modification at the
post-convergence call. Is it possible? Am I getting something wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help
