[TRNSYS-users] building type 56: performance based on time-step



Dear TRNSYS users,

the building type 56 is used to generate a load profile regarding to a constant room temperature. I experienced a different behavior of cooling and heating demand based on the time-step selected. It seems that the building type is extrapolating its performance within one hour, when such a smaller time-step is selected - and correction its state, based on one hour calculations.

All input values like irradiation on all surfaces contribute as a continuous function. Details are shown in the attached .pdf file. The same issue appears in TRNSYS versions of 16 and 17.

The same issue has already been discussed without detailed answering: https://mailman.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/trnsys-users/2008/003893.html


Tanks for help
best regards,

Axel Oliva
