Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] pump output

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

Chaoqin:

Thank you for pointing this out.  This is a bug.  The GSHP does not 
report any summed energy use variables and is not currently connected 
to any meters.

To determine the GSHP energy use, you will need to use report 
variables "GSHP COOLING Power" and "GSHP HEATING Power" which are 
both rates reported in [W].  These values are average power use over 
the reporting period.  If you report hourly, then multiply the 
reported value by 1hr and you have Wh.  If you report monthly, then 
you need to multiply each value by the corresponding number of hours 
in each month to get Wh.  After the values are converted to Wh, then 
you can sum them for the year or whatever period you are interested 
in.

Mike
