Information
Hypothesis and equations
Hot water radiator taking into account inertias of water filling and radiator body. Room heating needs have to be modelled apart from this model.
The radiator is controlled by an input of valve opening (between 0 and 1). The model manages the interface with a distribution system (pipe)
Control draws a part of distribution system water flow rate, according to the room heating needs.

Instructions for use
Setting of inertia is simplified thanks to a list of correlations by radiator type (cast iron, aluminium, steel) from manufactures data.
Known limits / Use precautions
The mass flow conservation is not respected, it's recommended to use "RadiatorRoom" model.

Revisions
Hubert Blervaque 06/2012 : MAJ de la documentation BuildSysPro.
Sila Filfli 04/2013 : Ajout d'une vanne thermostatique simple. Le débit varie en fonction du besoin et ne peut dépasser la valeur nominale. Le besoin est représenté par l'ouverture de la vanne avec une régulation entre 0 - fermée et 1 - ouverte (il s'agit du ratio de la puissance demandée par rapport à la puissance nominale).
Hubert Blervaque 09/2013 : Ajout d'une corrélation par type de radiateur (fonte, aluminium, acier) issue de données constructeur pour faciliter le paramétrage de l'inertie.
Benoît Charrier 05/2015 : Suppression des connecteurs T & m_flow.
