Re: [TRNSYS-users] SDHW example TRNSYS



Did you take into account the incidence angle modifiers when you calculated the efficiency?

As for the second issue, did you account for any pipe losses or pump energy gains to the fluid?  Did you look to see if the differences you're calculating are within your simulation tolerances?
