Re: [TRNSYS-users] What is the TOLERANCE meaning?



Logan,
 
  The TOLERANCES statement is a control statement used to specify the error tolerances to be used during a TRNSYS simulation. The statement has the form:

TOLERANCES  eD  eA
or
TOLERANCES  -zD  -zA

where

eD      is a relative (and zD is an absolute) error tolerance controlling the integration error.
eA      is a relative (and zA is an absolute) error tolerance controlling the convergence of input and output variables.

Example:         The error tolerances eD and eA are both to be set to one-tenth of one percent.  The TOLERANCES statement is then

TOLERANCES  .001  .001

The tolerances for the new equation solver (SOLVER=1) are considered differently.  The mean standard deviation for all of the equations is calculated and must be less than the specified tolerances to reach convergence.
Regards,
  David

Dear All,
 
I would like to know the definition of the "Tolerance Convergence" in Global Infos. Because I loss the TRNSYS manual (Volume I). Is it a percentage no?
When I changed this value from 0.001(define) to 0.4, my data output has a lot of difference.
 
Thanks.
Logan
