Welcome to the TRNSYS Users Forum.
The forum is a place where people can interact and have discussions about different topics involving the use of the TRNSYS software package. Here you can post topics for discussion or questions on using TRNSYS and get advice from other users or TRNSYS experts. This forum is not intended for detailed technical support. Users should contact their distributor’s hotline for such assistance.
Some tips for success on using the forum:
- Follow the Forum Rules posted in Forum Administration.
- There are categories for different types of topics and questions. Post your topic or question into the proper category.
- Before posting a topic or question search the existing topics (and the TRNSYS Users listserv archive or Post archive) to see if a similar topic or question has already been answered.
- Use a descriptive topic name. Don’t use attention getting subjects, they don’t get attention and only annoy people.
- State the version of TRNSYS and which add-ons your are using.
- Include enough specific details for your topic of question to be answered. Just posting “Why am I getting an error?” without describing the specific error and what you are trying to do when you get the error will not receive a response that fixes your issue.
- Remember when people help you, they are doing you a favor. Be patient, help people out by posting good descriptions of what you need help with, and be polite even if a response does not solve your issue.
- Moderators may edit your post for clarity or move your topic to a more appropriate category.
For a simple thermal modelisation of a machinery room ventilation I used the Type 88.
I connect as input an equation editor with Type 88 to handle the sensible heat loads.
Unfortunately, those are not assumed by the model - ie Type 88.
When I fill directly the heat loads in type 88 they are properly considered in the model.
When I try to interconnect equation editpr with a type 57 for example, in order make a link with the type 88, the heat loads are neither assumed.
Just to complete the message, I use a, equation editor, because I need to add several inputs from a type 9c
Does anyone face to the same issue ?
Thanks to the community.

@quentin_courjeau Hi there, I recommend checking the units of the heating loads that you are sending to your Type88 from the equation block. A component will convert units if you change the Units for a number, but when an input is from a connection or from a variable name, the component interprets the units of the input as the standard units, even if you change the units in the input box. To check the standard units for an input, hit the "more" button to the right of the input.
