The answer to your question #2 is yes. An actuator for the radiant system water mass flow rate can be set in kg/s. Here is the EnergyManagementSystem actuator object as generated in the EDD file for the example file RadLoHydrHeatCoolAuto

EnergyManagementSystem:Actuator Available,EAST ZONE RADIANT FLOOR,Hydronic Low Temp Radiant,Water Mass Flow Rate,[kg/s]

The Python implementation gives you access to the same variables.
