[TRNSYS-users] Type 32 - Unexpected error

[Martin Ssembatya <mssembatya@gmail.com>]

Hi every one,

I am using Type 32 to model the cooling capacity delivered by the FCUs to occupied zones from a solar cooling system. But however, this type is disappointing me with one unexpected error message i.e. "The TRNSYS routine has found an inconsistency in the specified component between the input file and the information expected by the type (Type32).
Report information; "An illegal INPUT value has been reported by the model. The model has reported that input 3 is the problem." Input 3 corresponds to the air flow rate!

I have checked the source code of this model and i realized it should only return this message when this input3, the air mass flow rate, and water mass flow are less than zero. If equal to zero, the model sets the inputs = outputs and the energy rates = zero. I am getting stuck because this means that the air mass flow rate of 1140 kg/hr i am  using should work perfectly. I therefore, request for any assistance in case someone has ever encountered and solved this problem.

Thanks in advance
