Output Variable for Radiant Heating Floor

Hello everyone,

I am simulating in EnergyPlus a room with radiant heated floor (pipe) install inside the floor layer. I used boiler as heat source. I am trying to study the heat behaviour from the system to the zone. Now I am using Zone Radiant HVAC Heating Rate (W) to know the behavior of the Radiant Floor.

However, I need more detail information such as the amount of heat that is convected to the air and the conducted heat between the radiant floor (pipe) and the upper layer. Is it possible to set a specific node inside the radiant floor (pipe) layer?

I really appreciate your help, Thank you!
