Depending on your system type, only certain DOE-2 hourly variables will apply and will be output in the hourly reports. I think that will explain your zero values and perhaps some of the non-sensical ones. Buried within the DOE-2 documentation are some tables that describe which variables are "appropriate" for each system type. This applies to both system and zone variables. I, personally, find the tables in the documentation cumbersome both to find and to read, so I've reformatted to my own taste (attached here).<BR>

Hope that helps and good luck,<BR>

<P dir=ltr><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT face=Calibri>It has been my experience when looking at the temperature conditions at the system level around the heating and cooling coils that everything seems totally bogus</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT face=Calibri> in the hourly reports</FONT></SPAN><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT face=Calibri>.
