Since each thermal block is modeled with its own system, you can end up modeling as many as 100 or more systems per project. For LEED projects (or other App. G models), I have been calculating and manually entering values for cooling EIR for every single system, based on capacities reported in the SV-A reports. I factor in the unique fan power (per G3.1.2.9) for each system and remove its contribution from the efficiency, since fan power is included in EER and needs to be separated per G3.1.2.1. Once you enter efficiency for each system, just about any change you make in the model changes the supply flow rate and/or system capacities, which means you need to redo all the efficiency calculations.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Does this method seem correct?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone figured out a way to automate this process?
