Dear
Sir/Madam
I am
modelling a zone with an internal load of 1000W and a constant external
temperature. Setting the field “Temperature Convergence Tolerance Value”
in the building object to 100 °C produces a start temperature which almost
equals the external temperature: this sounds quite reasonable. On the other
hand, if the mentioned field is set to 0.4 °C the start temperature is roughly 40
°C: in my opinion this far too high. In both cases temperature values converge
in the middle of the simulation period is the same (i.e. about 1 month).
I wonder
what effects the “temperature convergence tolerance value” has on
the simulation. What value is recommended? Why does my simulation behave like
this?
I would
appreciate your comments.
Regards
Alexander Beisteiner
