How is a single heat source(Type 231) split between zones in a building (Type56a)?
Do I define one input and then split it as a ratio within Type56, Zone, Gains?

I am modelling a 2-floor domestic property. The 2
floors are connected by an open hall, stairs and landing. A thermostat is
located in the hall.
A single heating system (GSHP) will need to supply heat to both floors (under
floor heating or low temperature radiators.)
What is the easiest way of modelling this; I'm thinking:
1) Use 2 zones; One for upstairs and one for down stairs.
2) Each zone has an emitter.
3) Each emitter is a load on the same heating system. Is it easy to
represent parallel heating circuits from a single heat source? What
components should I be looking at?
Any comments welcome.
Thanks
Paul
