Show Tempering Valve as connector
How do I show a tempering valve in a plant loop using EnergyPlus? I can't add it to the connector list, so I'm at a loss. Thanks!

Have you looked at the E+ example files? HP_wICSSolarCollector.idf
and SolarCollectorFlatPlateWater.idf
are the two that use TemperingValve (this is a link to the I/O reference guide, you need to read that too).
It needs to be put on its own branch, the other only branch would be the one with your WaterHeater:Mixed object (no bypass or anything else)
Also, the ConnectorList object in EnergyPlus is just looking for the splitter & mixer on the supply or demand side of the plantloop. As Julien mentioned, the TemperingValve is on a branch between the splitter & mixer.
Thanks to both Julien and Aaron!!
