[TRNSYS-users] Heating pipes model

[knut.erik.enerstvedt@niva.no]

Dear TRNSYS users,

I need to model heating pipes commonly
found in greenhouses. The pipes are in loops located 15 cm above the floor,
1 m above the floor, along the walls and somewhat below the ceiling. Hot
water flows in the pipes and heats up the greenhouse. I use Type 56 to
model the greenhouse, but have not yet succeded in finding a model for
the heating pipes. Does anyone know an appropriate model for the heating
pipes and how to use it in combination with Type 56? 

I have considered using active layers,
but then again the pipes are not actually inside the floor or walls.

Best regards,
Knut Erik Enerstvedt
