2017-01-13 05:55:03 -0500 | answered a question | Shadowbox Spandrel in EnergyPlus: Warning - Inside surface heat balance did not converge The warning ceased to pop up at the moment I added thermal mass to the adiabatic surfaces' walls. Maybe the problem was given by the order of magnitude of the thermal mass properties of the walls. |
2016-08-01 09:06:30 -0500 | commented question | Is there a maximum air temperature in energyplus? How do I override it? @__AmirRoth__ I'm trying to model a Shadow box spandrel. It's insulated and it's exposed to the daylight. The model is described in this question: https://unmethours.com/question/19209... |
2016-08-01 08:54:08 -0500 | asked a question | Is there a maximum air temperature in energyplus? How do I override it? Running an Energy Plus model in witch air temperatures should be higher than 100°C I get several errors. Is there a upper bound for the air temperature in zones? Is it possible to override this maximum air temperature? It should reach at least 150°C. |

2016-07-28 12:44:18 -0500 | asked a question | Shadowbox Spandrel in EnergyPlus: Warning - Inside surface heat balance did not converge I am modelling a shadowbox spandrel in EnergyPlus in order to obtain the max/min temperatures reached by the materials and then try to assess the risk of condensation. (model) The geometry is the following: Zone1: 10cm thin shadow box (height:1m, lenght:1,5m), with a FenestrationSurface (Coated DGU) on the East side and Zone2 on the West side (trough an insulated wall). The other four surfaces have adiabatic BC. Zone2: a small box used to obtain the internal temperatures (22°C during the day and 18°C by night). At first I'd like to obtain the temperatures that the shadow box would reach without venting holes. The weather file is GBR_London.Gatwick.037760_IWEC. Running the attached model with Energyplus 8.5.0 I get several of the following warnings: and of the following severe errors: * Severe * Temperature (low) out of bounds [-108.64] for zone="ZONE 1", for surface="SURFACE NORTH"* Number of timesteps per hour is set to 60. Given that running the model with ventilation (WindandStackOpenArea) I don't get severe errors I think that the problem might be the zone temperature limits of energyplus. (model) Although the Temperature out of bounds is negative I'm expecting to reach about 150°C in the shadowbox. Is there an upper temperature limit in Energy Plus? Is there a way to change it? I understand from this question that the room I'm trying to model is too small for the hypotheses of the convection correlations, could it be a reason for the missing convergence? |
