Re: Fun coil



Thank's Jeff,...

1) Standard TRNSYS contains type32, type52a, type52b cooling coils model
(simplified and detailed respectively): I think I can use one of these types
in conjunction with type3b pump model and type4a stratified storage tank
model to simulate the fun coil (see the attachment). In heating mode the
pump supplies outlet fluid temperature and flowrate to a storage tank (that
needs cold-side temperature and flow-rate as input); storage tank calculates
water temperature and flowrate to heat source that I link as input in type32
(or 52). In this way I have the outlet dry bulb temperature and flowrate of
the air to use as ventilation's inputs in PREBID. The inlet dry and wet bulb
temperature in type32 are output of type56 multizone model. It's exact
(probably a fan is necessary...)?. If yes, how can I to simulate the cooling
mode? And which component are necessary? Mine is a year's simulation... need
I a controller, maybe?

2) Alternatively, for the fun coil TESS has a type673 2-Pipe Console Unit
that requires as input fluid temperature and total fluid flowrate of the
working fluid (as type 32). The outputs are Sensible load met, Latent load
met, Load not met, Fan power and Fan fraction of full-load power, but there
are no outlet temperature and flowrate of the air to link as input in
PREBID! How can I connect this type with type 56??

3) Type31b simple (and type556 detailed) buried horizontal pipes is easy to
use without the equipment, but I'm searching a way to arrange it with the
fun coils...

Kind regards
