Re: [TRNSYS-users] Radiant Heating System

I understand you linked room temp to radiator, but what radiator  
output did you link to what element in type 56?

Note that Type 56 will automatically keep the zone at setpoint.

I recommend turning the heating capacity to zero or a very small value  
in the Type 56 zone and controlling the zone setpoint from simulation  
studio to more easily connect it to your radiator.
