This is because the report variable “EarthTube-Volume
Flow Rate” has a bug. This is fixed in the next release. (It had been registered
as Sum type variable instead of a State). The model is okay, just the reporting.
You could report EarthTube-Volume [m3] and then calculate rates.

earthtube "exhaust" type model - volume output
Hi,
I have an
earthtube “exhaust” type model. The design flow rate is 0.055556 m3/s
(equivalent to 200 m3/h), the “constant term flow coefficient” is 1 and the
other 3 coefficients are 0. The air flow schedule is 100% every day from 9.00am
to 17.00pm.
I look the results
and I see that the volume output is not always 200m3 for every working hour of
the simulation (i.e. from 9am to 5pm). There are cases where the volume is, for
example, 150 m3, 166.7 m3, etc.
Do you know why I
do not get always 200m3 at my output?
Best regards,
Georgios
