Error when controling a Low Temperature Radiant Floor
I'm doing a simulation for a heating floor system and cooling floor system.
To make this system, first I have assigned the Internal construction source on the floor of my building, after in the thermal zone I have assigned to each zone ZoneHVAC: Low Temperature Radiant: variable Flow, inside this option I assigning schedules thermostat, in the heating control temperature schedule name and cooling control temperature schedule name and put fractional Schedules of operation in the equipment.
Next I’ve done two circuits Empty plant loop, one for the cooling circuit and other for the heating circuit assigning the Zone HVAC: Low Temperature Radiant: Variable Flow to the corresponding circuit, these circuits are formed to: variable pump + boiler/chiller and bypass piper + piper + Low Temperature Radiant: variable Flow + piper, I attached two images to make it more understandable this scheme
In the set point manager of these circuits I have assigned the water outlet temperature, being these 15 degrees for the cooling and 35 degrees for the heating circuit with a tolerance of ± 1 degree.
The problem with this system is that when you go to the open result viewer is able to see that the temperature inside the building is not affected by the system.
I would appreciate any help or advice to solve my problem and apologize for my low level English.
Can you provide a copy of your model? Also, did you set thermostats for each thermal zone?
yes, I put a thermostat for each thermal zone and put the termostats in
control temperature schedule name.I attached my model in the following link:link text
Thanks for your help
SO are you succeed in modeling a radiant floor heating system? I am trying to do it, but it is very difficult, would you please share a simple example? Thank you sosososo much!
