Re: [TRNSYS-users] Closed Cycle Solar Hot Water System



Have you looked at the SDHW example that's provided for some insight as to what you might be doing wrong?  I would start there.  After that, hook up the flow rate outputs from all of the components to an online plotter and see where the problem lies.

Hi
I'm trying to design a closed cycle hot water system for use with a Heat Exchanger with a Solar Collector, pump and tank. I want to be able to set the mass flow rate of the system but it seems that even though I've set the maximum flow rate in the pump, the actual flow rate is way higher than that. I'm guessing it is due to the tank. Can anyone help me out on what to do with the tank? I only want a simple tank with 1 inlet and 1 outlet and the mass flow rate to be the one i determine it to be.
Many Thanks
