Temperature/relative humidity out of bounds/range, large latent heat

Hi, I am modelling a single zone with multilayered walls using HAMT model, the zone is uncontrolled for instance (no HVAC or other equipments except air infiltration of 0.5 ACH). When I run simulation, I get a huge number of warnings (from 3000 to milions in some cases) of the following type: - Calculated Relative Humidity out of range (PsyRhFnTdbRhov) - HeatAndMoistureTransfer: Large Latent Heat for Surface SOUTH WALL - Temperature out of range [-100. to 200.] (PsyPsatFnTemp) Sometimes those warnings do not prevent simulation to complete and I get logical results, but sometimes they lead to severe and fatal errors and simulation stops. I noticed that those warnings and errors change when changing the weather file or the simulation run periods.

Did any one experience the same issues? Any solutions? Thank you.

  • Calculated Relative Humidity out of range (PsyRhFnTdbRhov) - (PsyRhFnTdbRhov)
  • HeatAndMoistureTransfer: Large Latent Heat for Surface SOUTH WALL - WALL
  • Temperature out of range [-100. to 200.] (PsyPsatFnTemp) (PsyPsatFnTemp)

Sometimes those warnings do not prevent simulation to complete and I get logical results, but sometimes they lead to severe and fatal errors and simulation stops. I noticed that those warnings and errors change when changing the weather file or the simulation run periods.
