<p class=MsoNormal>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.<o:p></o:p></p>

baseline file is based on Appendix G compliance. please note my
system names do not match the system selection I have for baseline case.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I thought I was wrapping up my baseline model and then for
some reason I discovered that the only heating energy being used is going
through the zone baseboards. When I take out the baseboards, the results
show a big fat ZERO for any space heating energy the DOE2 error shows
below. How can the design loads not get passed to the system. The
baseline systems are VAV with reheat, but for some reason there is no heat or
reheat unless I specify pre-heat (which there is none) or baseboards...
any ideas are appreciated--because I thought I was closer to finished with this
model until this issue popped up.<o:p></o:p></p>
