Dear Matt, The problem ist not tracing the inputs, outputs and parameters. We have been trying to debug the component and have encountered the problem explained before: " While simulating with the type 557a (Ground Heat Exchanger (TESS)) I discouverd that the heat losses of the earth control volume to the sides, top and bottom (Outputs: 5,6,7) are generating a peak in a constant period (roughly 27 hours) while the rest of the time these outputs are zero. What I actually want is an output of the losses in every timestep. Does anyone have an idea what is actually calculated by these outputs? Is there an error in the code?" The problem is that the type is quite commplicated and hence we are not able to completely understand the code! But the results we get seem to be wrong if ever our interpretation of the results in the online plotter are correct! The losses to all sides (top, bottom and side) are 0 for nearly all the time, only for 1 timestep (after a period off roughly 27 hours) it get a value. We have tried to understand the timestep handeling in the code, which (if we understood well!!) seems to convert the unit hours of the main soubroutine into seconds for the other soubroutines used, and we suspect that there might be a mistake somewhere in the treatment of the losses with the different time units! But as mentioned we are not sure and we are no experts either ! Maybe some of you colleages may have an idea, Sorry for bothering !
