<p class="MsoNormal">I am modeling a university building and experimenting with scenarios to seen how the building’s performance changes. In the CHW Plant screen in DD wizard I changed the compressor from variable speed to constant speed. As expected the energy
use in the simulation went up, but after I changed it back to variable speed the energy use did not drop back to the previous level. I have replicated it with a couple throwaway models. Is this a bug or did it make an additional change that I do not know about?
See the attached picture for the exact spot.<o:p></o:p></p>
