The building side needs to get heat input/output from the plant
side. This linkage is done via a type 6 ('Flux connection between
zone & plant ') controller from the building side.<br>

<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I have a simple model of a building with a solar heating
system. The solar heating system consists of the following
components:<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>-simplified flat plate collector<br>
-slab-on-grade hydronic floor<br>
</div>
<div>-variable speed domestic WCH pump<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I have the following connections:<br>
</div>
<div>collector->hydronic floor<br>
</div>
<div>hydronic floor->pump<br>
</div>
<div>
pump->collector<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>And containments:<br>
</div>
<div>collector: ambient air<br>
</div>
<div>hydronic floor: node within a surface: ground floor
inserted into node 2 (within a concrete layer)<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>
When i run the simulations with and without the plant network,
I get the same temperatures inside the building. Hence, it
does not seem like the solar heating system is contributing to
any heat through the floor into the building zone at all. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>My question is: Does anyone know if I have to link the
plant network in a different way or if I may have overlooked
something in order to get the solar heating system to
contribute to heat inside the building.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Kind regards,<br>
