Steam Traps

I thought this had been asked before but was unsuccessful bringing it up in
the archives.

For a steam baseboard system, is there a way to model a loss factor due to
faulty steam traps? I could see using the SUPPLY-LOSS-DT keyword as a
means to model this, but my input there would be based on a guess at the
system loss due to the steam trap.

This is for a calibrated model, as an FYI. Thanks!
