[EnergyPlus_Support] CAV and low temperature loop radiator, can't reach setpoint in autosize





Dear all,

I'm trying to model a low temperature loop for heating a zone which have a CAV air system. My problem is quite simple, but I can't find the solution. Imagine to have a zone heated by a radiator connected  to a low temperature boiler. The inlet temperature for the radiator is 40°C. The zone has also a CAV that can make 3 ach. Everything is on autosize, the functioning priority is 1 for the CAV and 2 for the radiator.

I don't know why but the E+ seems to be not able to dimension correctly the heating radiator. The sizing parameters used by the radiator are the defaults provided by the IO_ref and the Eng_ref. The zone mean air temperature is really far from the 20°C temperature setpoint.

I upload also the .idf.

Thank you very much for your help,
Marco
