[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: the condenser fan energy for air-cooled chiller

Adding to the previous response...

As has been noted several times in previous e-mail support responses,
look at the meter details file (*.mtd). This file shows what report
variables are on which meters and vice versa -- which meters contain
what report variables (see OutputDetailsAndExamples.pdf, page 54 of
the pdf or numbered page 42, item "eplusout.mtd"). If you are using
EP-Launch, push F12 to see the .mtd file for the input data file
(.idf) that you are using.
