Augustin,
Assuming no
infiltration/ventilation the behaviour of the zone air temperature as well as
the operative temperature after switching
off gains depend on the
surface temperatures.
I run the attached files,
but the entities on the online weren’t sufficient to see your problem
(Top and Text).
If you talk about
temperature are you looking at Top or Tair?
You may check surface
temperatures TSI and the NTYPE QCOMI for heat transfer.
I suggest add Onlines
with all relevant entities like TSI, TAIR, QCOMI, rad. GAINS, conv. Gains etc. .

Decrease of temperature with Type 56
Dear Aaron,
Thanks for answering so quickly.
Changing the infiltration rates (setting it to 0) doesn't change the phenomenon
I describe... I had tried but the decrease can still be observed. Concerning
the weather data, I wanted to simplify as much as I could the model, to be sure
the problem wasn't the result of the weather variations. If you delete the
heating device (or set it to 0) and the soil temperature too, you will see that
the temperature decreases logically up to 0°C.
The conditions for the external walls are set to a default value 0, in order to
be sure the evolution of the temperature remains constant (increase when there
is a heating device and decrease when there is no heating device). In that way,
the temperature shouldn't increase after stopping the heating device (it is the
case in my simulation for the third time step following the interruption of
heating), and it shouldn't decrease so fast for the two time steps following
this interruption (comparing with the evolution after 4 time steps = 1 hour).

Augustin,
You infiltration rates seem relatively
high (0.6ACH), if it is this high I would assume you are in a windy location,
or the building is old and leaky (or you include some mechanical ventilation in
this number). Since the building is well insulated, I would assume the
problem lies within your control (signal) scheme, or double checking your ACH
assumption against the results of a blower door test. I use the data
reader and TMY2 weather data to define the conditions for external walls.
I did not understand how you defined your conditions for the external walls,
that may be something you want to double check on, I cannot say if it is
incorrect or correct, but may be a likely source of your problems.

Subject: [TRNSYS-users] Decrease
of temperature with Type 56
Dear
all,
I sent a mail two weeks ago to expose the problem I had but it was not very
clear. So I have made an Excel file to illustrate it.The model has been
simplified.
It represents a two rooms building, with no internal gain. The outside
temperature remains constant to 0°C and all the other parameters used by the
.bui are equals to a default value: 0.
The only parameter which is a variable input of the model is a heating power.
It remains constant until the steady state is obtained and then it is put to 0.
The variation of the temperature, for the three time steps following the stop
of the heating device seems to be weird. The decrease of the temperature is
very fast, then it increases (???) before going down with an acceptable
derivative value (around 0.3°C/hr).
Find attached the model I have used.
Can anyone explain to me the reason of this phenomenon?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
