Re: [TRNSYS-users] hot water distribution

[David BRADLEY <d.bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Eva,
  Your pump model will have one inlet and one outlet. Just after the pump, you can use either a combination of Type11s to divert the flow to the various floors (each Type11 allows for 2 outlets). If you have the TESS Hydronics Library, you can use Type647, which has one inlet and up to 100 outputs. In either case, you will probably need to use some equations to determine what fraction of the pump's total flow needs to go to each of the flow diverter's outlets.

Dear Sirs,

I model a building with underfloor heating which get the appropriate hot water from solar collectors. The hot water is stored in a tank and then it is pumped to the building. My query is how can I distribute the water to each zone, I need a pump which has one inlet (flow from tank) and six different outlet (flow to active layer of each zone). Each zone has different need according to its size and so I want to send the needed amount of water in order to control their temperatures.

Thank you.

Regards,

Eva
