Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Masonry Heater as a specific Zone

["vincent lacour vlacour@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Linda for your message.
The issue I am facing is that a masonry heater has a big thermal inertia; basically you would burn wood at high temperature in the heater for a few hours and let the thermal inertia provide heat to the building for a couple of days. Â I do not know how I could introduce thermal inertia in a low temperature radiant electric object.
Regards
Vincent
