[TRNSYS-users] Relationship between latent gains and sensible energy demand (Ntype 2)

[Matias Garcia <matias.garcia0@gmail.com>]

Dear Trnsys users,

How does the latent gains (NType11) affect my energy balance, specially my ideal heating demand (Ntype2,30,31)?
I am simulating two different types of ventilation systems, the main difference between them is that the relative humidity of the supply air is different, but supply temperature and flow rate are the same. When I compare my cooling and heating demand of my airzone (Ntype 2,30,31) for both systems, I see that they are different, specially the values for heating. In my heating type manager I don't have any humidification, only a set temperature.
I don't fully understand this difference because when I look the energy balance number 4 all the parameters are related to temperature changes and there is no latent gains considered.

Thanks in advance!
