[TRNSYS-users] Heating/cooling energy consumption (David BRADLEY)

Shahen,
   The Type56 QSENS output shows you the loads on each airnode of the 
building. Negative values of QSENS indicate heating loads while positive 
values indicate a cooling load. It is often less trouble to use the 
QHEAT (NTYPE30) and QCOOL (NTYPE31) outputs instead. These are simply 
the heating loads and cooling loads respectively.
Kind regards,
  David
