Description
Helpdesk ticket 10340
** Severe ** Autosizing of Source side water heater design flow rate requires Sizing:Plant object to have an exit temperature >= 58C
** ~~~ ** Occurs for WaterHeater:Mixed object=TANK ACS
** Fatal ** Preceding sizing errors cause program termination
How can I solve this problem, considering that the sizing temperature for the HW loop should be 50°C and not 58° or more?
Workarounds are to change the HW loop sizing to 58C to satisfy this hard-wired limit in the source code, or hard-size the water heater source side flow rate.
