Thanks John--I hadn't input the reheat delta t, thinking that it was one of
those "blank" default auto-calc things.... so by inputting a 30 deg delta,
that took away the error in the bdl file, but the results are still not
showing any space heating consumption and yet somehow I have 0.0 hours out
of throttling range---I thought this had to be too good to be true.
I've attached the current .pd2 & .inp files I am running. If you do have
time to take a quick peak at my inputs...this baseline file is based on
Appendix G compliance. please note my system names do not match the system
selection I have for baseline case.
Thanks for your time and attention to give me a hand.
