[EnergyPlus_Support] 4 Pipe Induction: Something missing to control temperatures

["anarui.oliveira" <anarui.oliveira@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all...
....this is getting tricky...
I tried to adapt a basic scheme of VAV Reheat created with Compact 
HVAC, and substitute the terminal units by 4 Pipe Induction models, 
inserting the necessary coils.
But, although I seem to have managed to get the plant and air loop 
structures right (No severe errors, at least), the zones' 
temperatures are not actually being controlled to the intended 
setpoints.
Do I also have to adapt the thermostatic controls in some way?

Neither my model nor the Example File "5ZonePIU" correctly create 
the connections diagram, so it becames more difficult to look into 
it.
There are also some issues with the calculations stability depending 
on design values, but I don't think thats the key problem causing 
zones' temperature to not be controlled...

I uploaded the file (CompactVAVReheat_adapted2_4PipeInduc.idf), in 
case anyone wants to take a look at it.

Thanks in advance,
Ana Rui.
