Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] underfloor heating

Reference ExampleFiles\RadLoHydrHeatCoolAuto.idf.  The objects required to 
defined a low temp radiant floor are:

CONSTRUCTION WITH INTERNAL SOURCE
LOW TEMP RADIANT SYSTEM:HYDRONIC

plus the usual zone control objects required for any HVAC systems (ZONE 
CONTROL:THERMOSTATIC, CONTROLLED ZONE EQUIP CONFIGURATION, ZONE EQUIPMENT LIST) 
and plant loops and branches to connect it to the boiler.

LOW TEMP RADIANT SYSTEM:HYDRONIC requires specification of the "Hydronic tubing 
inside diameter" and the tubing length and water flow rate can be autosized.
