Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] An example file of ERV



Regarding the bypass air reporting.  Everything looks OK here.  An explanation 
from the heat exchanger expert:

"The HeatExchanger:Air To Air:Generic object appears to be working 
correctly in the example file. For the rotary HX (example file as is), 
the air is not bypassed, the wheels rotational speed is varied to 
maintain an exhaust air outlet temperature equal to the threshold 
temperature for the time the HX is in defrost. The exhaust/supply air 
temperatures are averages over the time step so the user will not see 
the threshold temperature at the exhaust outlet node, its the average 
exhaust outlet temperature (will be lower than the threshold temperature 
if defrost fraction is less than 1). For the plate heat exchanger the 
supply air is bypassed (and verified in the example file when Heat 
Exchanger Type is changed to plate). Outlet temperatures are again the 
average over the time step."
