<p class=MsoNormal>Hello<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>While running a recent project, I’ve come up with a
handful of questions to pose to the group. These are all based on a recent
project, which is a 3 story office building in the southern hemisphere, with 6
cooling only VAV AHUs with electric zone reheat and a air cooled chiller.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>From the detailed simulated output file, Building
Monthly Loads Summary (sheet LS-D): This sheet shows Cooling, Heating, and
Electrical loads. Are the stated electrical loads non-hvac only? In my current
project, these loads do not vary from month to month and this is the only
explanation I’ve come up with.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span
style='mso-list:Ignore'>2.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>Doing a baseline vs proposed system comparison,
I’m seeing variances in the peak heating and cooling times. Any ideas
why? I had thought that these would be similar days/times as we are using the
same weather file, same orientation etc. The proposed model does incorporate a
shading system to the SE and SW facades and the baseline model does not have
this.<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>Is there an easier way to export the summary report
sheets into word documents? (Rather than making jpgs and copy/paste, which
looks fuzzy?) <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks so much for any responses.<o:p></o:p></p>
