[EnergyPlus_Support] out-of-range warning



Hi,all,
When I study the case  "windac.idf"in the example files, I change 
the "Rated total cooling capacity(grass)" from 11200w to 14000w, 
then many errors pop up.
-------------------------------------------
** Severe  ** Sizing: 
COIL:DX:COOLINGBYPASSFACTOREMPIRICAL "ZONE1WINDACDXCOIL": Rated air 
volume flow rate per watt of rated total cooling capacity is out of 
range. See Input-Output Reference Manual for valid range.
   ** Severe  ** For object = COIL:DX:COOLINGBYPASSFACTOREMPIRICAL, 
name = "ZONE1WINDACDXCOIL", the combination of
   **   ~~~   ** rated air volume flow rate, total cooling capacity 
and sensible heat ratio yields coil exiting
   **   ~~~   ** air conditions above the saturation curve. Possible 
fixes are to reduce the rated total cooling
   **   ~~~   ** capacity, increase the rated air volume flow rate, 
or reduce the rated sensible heat ratio for this coil.
   **   ~~~   ** If autosizing, it is recommended that all three of 
these values be autosized.

I compute the " rated volumetric air flow  per watt of rated total 
cooling
capacity", and the result is right in this range (350 ¨C 450 
cfm/ton). Both rated values can be found in the 
Coil:DX:CoolingBypassFactorEmirical.
(0.6m3/s)/(14000w). It looks good. Then what 's wrong with it?

I also try autosizing  all three of these value, more warinings 
appear, still reading this sort of range-out warning (all focus on 
one zone).

Thank you for your help

Eric
