Hello community,

I am currently working on a project to model a product's thermal load using EnergyPlus and Matlab, and I would like to use the co-simulation approach through the BCVTB to exchange data between the two programs.

The approach I am using is to model the product as an internal load using OtherEquipment instead of calculating the load separately and adding it as a schedule. I have used Matlab to calculate the heat load of the product and send it to E+ using BCVTB. E+ will then calculate the temperature inside the freezer and send it back to Matlab to calculate the new heat load for the next step, and so on.

However, I have encountered some errors while trying to perform this simulation, and I have no idea how to solve them. I would be grateful if someone with experience in co-simulation and the BCVTB could help me with this issue. I have attached the necessary files for anyone who wants to check on the model.

Thank you in advance for your help.
