Marcus, Make sure that you are using a short timestep (1-5 minutes) and that there is enough thermal capacitance in your flow loops. It may be that 10000 kg/h of air flowing through the device in the course of one time step is causing the system to be unstable. There was a recent post on this forum concerning a cooling tower connected to an absorption chiller that turned out to be exactly the same problem; far too much energy transferred in a system with far too little capacitance for the time step selected. The time step has to be shorter than the time constant of your system. Kind regards, David On 9/15/2013 08:36, Marcus wrote:

After creating the geometry within SketchUp (paying attention to draw always “inside” each activated zone) I saved both .skp and .idf files without getting error messages. Then, I opened the .skp file in SkethUp to proceed with the matching of adjacent surfaces. However, when I activate a zone some (many) surfaces are not recognized by the Object Info Tool (they can be selected on screen but are simply not seen by the Object Info Tool: the area showing Object Inputs properties is blank and the gray text “No EnergyPlus object selected” appears). Where I am wrong? Since the geometry is quite complicated, I hope I do not need to rebuild it from scratch… Thank you very much for your help. Regards,
