Central heating loop for a building with several thermal zones

Hello.

I am trying to create for educational reasons, a central heating loop with a hot water boiler, in a building with more than ten thermal zones, by using the openstudio program.

I am new in energy modeling so i am faced with some difficulties. First of all i would like to ask if there are any radiators in the openstudio library? Moreover, how could i be able to import the thermal zones into the plant loop? Is it right, in order to control the radiators indepentently , to put o scheduled HW Temp before each radiator?

Thank you in advance.
