[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Combiining systems to manage zone temperature

["Elmer Morrissey" <elmofuddly@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

As I said before, i seperated the system from the building in order 
to speed up analysis in order to debug it. In this test file, I am 
getting the two working simultaneously however they do not achieve 
the 16C setpoint set for the zone during the winter months? The temp 
in the zone seems to come close but never achieve the setpoint. Can 
you spot what is going on?

I've uploaded the file? it's in the problem submittals and its 
called SF01Baseboard.idf

I am using an Irish weather file and the UA I've set for the 
baseboard and the coil should have raised zone temperature 
sufficiently?!

Kind regards and thanks in advance

-Elmer
