RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Fancoil total cooling power rate & total water cooling coil power rate



The dehumidification for the simple coil is very simple.  You set the 
leaving RH value for the coil outlet in the input for the simple coil.  The 
coil will dehumidify if the conditions are above that RH value.

Thanks Richard Liesen
