[BLDG-SIM] max number of tracked modifications exceeded

Per Appendix G
 
7. Thermal Blocks - HVAC Zones Designed

Where HVAC zones are defined on HVAC design drawings, each

HVAC zone shall be modeled as a separate thermal block.

Exception: Different HVAC zones may be combined to create a

single thermal block or identical thermal blocks to which multipliers

are applied, provided that all of the following conditions are

met:

(a) The space use classification is the same throughout the thermal

block.

(b) All HVAC zones in the thermal block that are adjacent to glazed

exterior walls face the same orientation or their orientations vary by

less than 45 degrees.

(c) All of the zones are served by the same HVAC system or by the

same kind of HVAC system.

 
 
I would guess you do not need separate rooms if they are part of an HVAC
zone.

Ok, this could be embarrassing, but I got to know.

 

Could anyone shed some light on this error message I keep getting?  As
it turns out, I ended up with 405 zones.  I heard Doe-2.1 was limited to
99zones, is there a new limit for Doe 2.2. 

 

I was under the assumption that when modeling for LEED certification
each space in the architectural design should be modeled as a separate
space for building simulation, is this thought right or completely
wrong?  Thanks for the help.

Dear all,

Is there a listing somewhere, of building projects with renewable energy
installations (in the US or worldwide), say in the order of size of
renewable energy installed etc?

Thanks,
