I tried to plot a linear continious graph but my graph shows only specific dots. I tried to turn my output data of for loop but an error comes up. Can anyone help me to plot a decent graph?
length_1 = 20; % house length parameters
length_2 = 10;
length_3 = 4;
beta = 40; % roof angle
N_win = 4; % number of windows
N_wall = 1; % number of walls "all in one'
areaWin = 1; % area of windows
areaWall = 236; % area off walls
thermWall = 136.8; % wall thermal coeffient
thermWin = 2808; % window thermal coeffient
thickWin = 0.07; % thickness of wind
thickWall = 0.2; % thickness of walls
airDen = 1.225; % air density
ca = 1.01; % thermal capasity of air
COP = 2; % coeffiecient of performance
P = 3; % power 3KW
Volume = (length_1*length_2*length_3) + (tand(beta)*length_1*length_2); %house volume
mass = Volume*airDen;
R_win = (1/N_win) * (thickWin/(thermWin*areaWin)); %resistance of windows
R_wall = (1/N_wall) * (thickWall/(thermWall*areaWall)); %resistance of walls
Rh = 1/(1/R_wall + 1/R_win); %paralel circuit
fprintf("Volume = %f\n",Volume)
fprintf("Mass = %f\n",mass)
fprintf("Walls' R = %f\n",R_wall)
fprintf("Windows' R = %f\n",R_win)
fprintf("Rh = %f\n\n",Rh)
deltaT = 0.1; %6 minutes period of an hour = 6/60
Tini = 19; %initial temp starts with fav temp of household's owner
Ptotal = 0; %total power consumption counter
for t = 12:0.1:16 %Time between 12-16 o'clock
Tout=0;
fprintf("Time = %.2f\n",t);
fprintf("Tin,h = %.2f\n\n",Tini);
plot(t,Tini,"r-o")
grid on
hold off
if (t>12) && (t<14.1)
Tout = 30; %12am-14am outside temperature
elseif (t>14) && (t<15.1)
Tout = 31; %14am-15am outside temperature
elseif (t>15) && (t<16.1)
Tout = 30; %15am-16am outside temperature
end
if Tini<21
U = 0; %HVAC is OFF
else
U = 1; %HVAC is ON
end
hold on
Tini=((1-(deltaT/(1000*mass*Rh)))*Tini+(deltaT/(1000*mass*Rh))*Tout-U*((COP*P*deltaT)/(0.000277*mass*ca)));
Ptotal = Ptotal + P*U; %total power
end
fprintf("Total Power Consumption = %.d KW\n",Ptotal)

can you show the code?
