[TRNSYS-users] energy rate control / temperature level control

[David Bradley]

Patrick,
 My inclination would be to throw the building into energy rate control 
and look directly at the loads and I would NOT apply any temperature 
setbacks (the load peaks associated with coming back from setback or 
setup just obscure things) You can apply the equipment sizing as a 
limitation on the heating and cooling capacity available to each heating 
or cooling type in the building.
Cheers,
 David
