IB ZoneHVACBaseboardRadiantConvectiveElectric

The electric baseboard heater is a component in the zone equipment simulation. Heat from this device is radiated to people and surfaces and also convected to the surrounding air. The electric baseboard model includes the impact of the radiant heat addition to people and surfaces so that the thermal comfort and surface heat balances are impacted. The component is controlled to meet any remaining zone load not met by other equipment baseboard operates to meet the remaining zone load and the total electric consumption is calculated by dividing by the efficiency of the baseboard.
