Openstudio failed when usingLow Temp Radiant Const Flow
On this forum I have already read several articles on this topic. But I can't help it. My program failed every time I implement the Low Temp Radiant Const Flow.
Can someone tell me why my program failed and how to do it properly?
I use the low temperature to model floor heating.
Some information about the floor heating:
- constant temperature of 21 ° C
my Internal source layer consists of (you can see this on the photo):
reinforced concrete / foam / polyurethane / floating screed
here are some photos in openstudio:
This is the error that I get when using Low Temp Radiant Const Flow

what error are you getting? did you remember to include an internal source construction for the surfaces that have the Low Temp Radiant Const Flow object?
yes, I have added an internal source. But am not sure if it is correct. See photos in post
