Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Hot water radiators question
What you have so far is fine, but it is not enough. There must be a complete
PLANT LOOP and more components including a pump and boiler in order to serve
the radiator. Please see example file WindACAuto.idf This example has three
radiators on the demand side of the plant loop, but you can construct your
input to be similar with a single radiator.
