[esp-r] Hydronic floor in solar heating system

[Ragnhild Haukland Løge]

Hello,

I am trying to model a solar heating system with a hydronic floor. I
have a functioning control file with three components: solar
collector, tank and pump.

I want to replace the tank with a hydronic floor so the heat from the
solar collector is transferred to a layer within the ground floor. I
tried to do it in the exact same way as for the tank, only using a
hydronic floor, but the model will not simulate.

I also tried to set up the plant system so that there is both a tank
and a hydronic floor but this did not work either.

Does anyone have any experience using the "slab-on grade hydronic
floor" or have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix the model?

Both control files can be seen in the attachment.

Kind Regards
Ragnhild Løge
