Simulating a single room + radiator in EnergyPlus
Hi there,
I want to simulate a single room with a simple radiator. To do so, I have applied "ZoneHVAC:Baseboard:Convective:Water" + boiler in a loop. The simulation doesn't have any problem, however, in the reported outputs the variable "Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is not zero!!!! Does it mean that another heat supplier (with air flow) in addition to the radiator is considered in the simulation???
Thanks in advance
Where do you see the "Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy"? HTML table, CSV, ?
"Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is a variable in Output:Variable, and I saw the value of this variable in the released spreadsheet.
Hello, I am new to energyplus. I also want to make a simple room with only a radiator, but I am not sure how to set it up. Would you please share your idf file? thank you very much.
@Yuyang Gong what kind of radiator (hot water, electric, steam)? EnergyPlus has a specific object for each kind of radiative/convective heating equipment, and the best way to see how it is set up is within example file IDFs that are part of the EnergyPlus installation.
hot water radiator. Thanks for your reply, however, I didn't find the example file only with a radiator. Could you please tell me the name of the file? Thanks a lot!
