[EnergyPlus_Support] SolarCollector FlatPlate Example

Hi All,
The volume of the storage tank in this example is given as 1.5 cubic
metres. When I reduce this value to 0.3 cubic metres I appear to get
little chsnge in the Instantaneous Water Electricity Consumption over
a summers day.
It is a sunny day with solar incident at about 600 watts.sq metre at 7am.
The solar collector configuration is still the three AE32's.
Should the daily electricity consumption increase as the storage tank
volume decreases?

Any thoughts?

Bruce
