Anand, Yes, you can split the living room floor into two floors. If you are constructing the building in Trnsys3D simply draw a line down the middle of the living room and you will end up with two floor surfaces in the zone when you look at it in TRNBuild. I might point out as a side note, however, that this kind of issue happens all the time in buildings with radiant floors and that the solution is to simply put additional radiant floor piping loops into the larger zones and to valve the hydronic system so that the radiant floor in the larger zone gets more water flow than the others when it is calling for heating. The only reason (in my mind) to split the active floor into two parts in TRNBuild is if you want to be able to control those parts separately (i.e. send water flow to one half of the living room but not to the other half). regards, David On 4/24/2015 4:11 AM, Anand Narasipuram
