Re: [TRNSYS-users] Pump mass (over)flow problem

Barto,

I guess there is nothing wrong with your project; you just get a warning from the type that informs you that the flow in at least one time step through the pipe is greater than the volume of fluid it can hold. That's just information, an advice to remember you that you shouldn't model an hydraulic loop where the flowing fluid in one time step is greater than the volume it can hold. The fact that your controller is not stuck seems to indicate that you are not in this situation, maybe thanks to other components in the same loop. In your case I will not be worried, best regards

Dear users,

In my simulation I get warning message "The pipe model has reported that the flow through the pipe during at least one of the timesteps was greater than the capacity of the pipe..." and second is the "The controller was stuck for 0% of the time" - all of this refers to a solar collector system where I have 12 m2 vacuum tube collectors and circulating pump (Type 114 and Controler 2b) with flow rate 400 kg/h(which I think than is not too much to be a reason for this overflow problem). connected to a HX of tank 60d with volume of 1m3.

What do you think that could be the problem?

Thank you

Kind regards
Barto
