RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Error: Saturation temperature is out of range

Silvia,

I have never received this error, but EnergyPlus is good at giving clues about the problem.

I notice that the source side flow rate is ~30, but the load side is only 0.13 � that seems incorrect and may cause a heat balance problem.

CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEMS? WHICH PARAMETERS I SHOULD TRY TO CORRECT?
