Thanks for your help, yes now i add construction internal source but i saw there is tube spacing in this template. And my aim is to design system like "Underfloor Heating Mats" by using just electricity as a source of power. i looked at the example file from E+ i found Low Temperature Radiant Electric with reheat which is not exactly same with system i would to design "electrical mats". if you can help me, how can i design like this system "Underfloor Heating Mats"? Thanks in advance

I used DesignBuilder software to model the building. Now I am trying to design an underfloor heating system “electrical system” for my building on the floor by using energy plus V8.1. I used the template of Low Temperature Radiant Electric Systems under “zone HVAC radiative / convective unit” to do so, I did not make any other change just I imported my IDF file from DesignBuilder to energy plus and use this template by adjusting the parameters as shown in the attached picture. From the result obtained there is no change in terms of temperature and heating energy. It seems as if the system is not working. How can I solve this issue?.

How can i model ZoneHVAC:LowTempratureRadiant:Electric system for the floor of the house in energy plus?. i already tried to design it by using the example provided with the software but when i run the simulation the result is not changing. i am just changing the schedules and the parameters related with this template.
