[Equest-users] Thermostat Setting

Can't you just remove the sensitive project information from the files?
A text editor should allow you to find any "incriminating evidence" and
you can switch the weather file location so we won't even know where in
the world it's located :-) Unless you're modeling the pentagon, in which
case I'll quiet down.

 

And I doubt this is it, but you might want to double check your header
in the hourly report to make sure you're not looking at just the heating
setpoint (see attached pg.2 and below). The space isn't being cooled at
all, correct?

Unfortunately due to the sensitive nature of the project I cannot send
the files.  I have checked and my heating/cooling schedules are assigned
to the right locations.  

Could it be related to the design temperatures I have indicated for each
zone?  The tstat schedules are as I have stated below but I have the
design temperatures at 74 cooling and 72 heating.  The load temperature
(in the space definition) is 70.  My throttling range is 2.  Would any
of this cause problems?

Susan,

While in detailed data edit go onto one of your thermal zone
spreadsheets to look at your schedules. You will be able to see them
easily from there. Make sure you haven't accidentally put your heating
schedule in where your cooling schedule should be. If this doesn't work
zip up your .inp and .pd2 files and send them to us.

Good luck,
Carol

	I have a model that does not seem to be switching the thermostat
between heating and cooling.  When I output the hourly data for the Zone
Thermostat Setting it seems to always be the heating setpoints (70
occupied and 64 unoccupied).  Any idea why this wouldn't be changing
over to cooling setpoints (75 occupied and 82 unoccupied) during the
warmer months?
	
	Thanks in advance.
