Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Boiler:Simple

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

Paul:

The quick answer is to take the UnitHeater or FanCoil example and 
substitute a BOILER:SIMPLE in place of the PURCHASED:HOT WATER.

After a quick review of your input file, I noticed that you have more 
than one pump in the hot water loop.  EnergyPlus can have only one 
pump per loop, and it must be place in the branch which is upstream 
of the supply-side splitter.  Essentially, keep the pump in exactly 
the same place that it appears in the example files.  Also, double-
check your node names, it looks like the inlet and outlet node names 
in the plant loop may be reversed.

If this is not enough to get you going, please feel free to contact 
me again.

Mike
