<p class=MsoNormal>I have been working on a model for a loop-to-loop heat pump
system (to a lake or well), and have been getting the following error message:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The chiller design criteria is 31800000 cooling, with evap
flow at 64 to 44 with 3169 gpm and condenser flow at 85 to 105 with 3743 gpm. The
heat sink for the condenser loop is intended to run from 75 F to 95 F at design
conditions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am assuming that the negative energy value above indicates
that the values refer to the chiller in heating mode. Can anyone suggest the
most like causes for this error?<o:p></o:p></p>
