For the record....
Comfort or temperature in the zone is a control goal which conflicts with maintaining a fixed outlet temperature. Â
You can do one or the other unless (improbably) your variable flow and radiant heat exchange is exactly proportional to the zone load.

As far as I understand reading the guide, only the â??Water Mass Flow Rateâ?? can be "monitored" with EMS (I attach here the extract).ÂI have to simulate a variable flow radiant system in which both the inlet and outlet temperatures are fixed.ÂI hope that someone who has already met this problem can help me.ÂMirko--James V Dirkes II, PE, BEMP, LEED AP

There are two basic choices when considering our world:Â
1) it is all random happenstance
2) it was created with a purpose
Believing #1 can only result in anarchy. I pick #2 and work on discovering / living out that purpose.
