[TRNSYS-users] Fwd: Error creating the wall transfer function coeffients

[王洋]

Dear leen,

Thanks for your email!
I tried till 9 hours as the TIMEBASE which can work. But could you please
tell me the detailed reasons for that? i.e. why we need so large TIMEBASE 9
hours to meet its Stability Criteria?

Thanks in advance!
