Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] concrete core activation

Not at the minute...as far as I know you have to model the whole system. Because 3rd party GUI's like designbuilder make this so easy now, it's unlikely that e+ will develop the solution you propose. Perhaps an argument of increased simulation speed could be made.

Hey,

I have created the object: InternalSource, LowTemperatureRadiant:VariableFlow and a Thermostat.

Do I need to implement the whole HVAC System (PlantLoop, etc.)? I am new to EnergyPlus and OpenStudio and I tried it in OS, but it is not that easy - besides, we don't need the whole HVAC in our model, just concrete core activation incl. measured supply temperature.

Is there a possibility, to model something like a "ideal source/sink" for the LowtemperatureRadiant + Construction:InternalSource - without the wohle HVAC system? And if so, how would be a proper way to do that (inside OS would be easier for the start).

Thank you very much
