[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Lots of Warnings



I have changed the preheat set preheat design set temperature to 18 C still the out put data is look nonsense in the heating season, csv attached. 
          Inlet temperature is very high 115 C
          VAV Sys 1 outlet node always less or equal 18C
Could you help me sort out this problem. 
Please, could you also elaborate what does you mean in this paragraph
       'The SET POINT MANAGER:MIXED AIR pushes this setpoint to the heating coil exit 
        (less the fan heat delta), but the heating coil appears to be unable to meet 
        the load at some times'

The SET POINT MANAGER:WARMEST object is setting the supply air temperature 
setpoint. It has an upper limit of 18C. So, if no zones require cooling, it 
will max out at 18C.

The SET POINT MANAGER:MIXED AIR pushes this setpoint to the heating coil exit 
(less the fan heat delta), but the heating coil appears to be unable to meet 
the load at some times. Try setting the "Preheat design set temperature" in 
the SYSTEM SIZING object to 18C.

p.s. I'm gone tomorrow for a 4-day weekend. If you have questions tomorrow, 
please send to the yahoo group or to energyplus-support@xxxxxxxx
