modelX3BWithRadiantFloor

Example model showing a use of X3B

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This model demonstrates one potential simulation using the models available in Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.FLEXLAB.Rooms.X3B. This model is nearly identical to Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.FLEXLAB.Rooms.Examples.X3AWithRadiantFloor. For a description of most of the connections and reasons behind them see that documentation. The changes to make this example model are:
