Functional questions
...
- Verify if you see error messages during design computations. If so, fix them before doing the simulation.
- Verify the error messages and see if you can change your model based on the error message and its suggestions
- If you use ILS components, please verify following page : Imposed Load Simulation (ILS) error codes and common mistakes
- If your model has a pump with a 'proportional head' mode, please check if you can run the simulation in 'constant speed' of 'constant head' mode
- If your model contains PICV's (Pressure Independent Control Valve) or DPCV's, please try the following :
- Set "enable PI Control simplification" to false, you might need to tune the proportional band and repeat time
- change the valve type of the control valve behind the DPCV from equiprocentual to linear
- add randomness on the setpoint profiles of the rooms
enable the 'smoothen DPCV lift curve' parameter- raise the SVO value to 100 (smoothens the lift curve)) of the control valve behind the DPCV
- <not advised> In the 'setting overrides', go to the 'Expert Settings' tab and higher the Iteration target
- Set "enable PI Control simplification" to false, you might need to tune the proportional band and repeat time

Why does export to PDF sometimes yield a poor quality print for larger models?
