[EnergyPlus_Support] VolumeFlowperRatedTotCap out of range

["eric_zhou1223" <eric_zhou1223@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I am trying to enlarge the Unitary Heat Pump's cooling capacity 
without touching any other things ,when I learn an example file 
HeatPumpAuto.

I replaced the Capacity field using 33500w (originally "autosize", 
the value in the eio file is 25885w). Then thousands of error jumped 
out saying:

 ** Warning ** COIL:DX:COOLINGBYPASSFACTOREMPIRICAL "HEAT PUMP 
ACDXCOIL 1" - Air volume flow rate per watt of rated total cooling 
capacity is out of range.
   **   ~~~   **  ...VolumeFlowperRatedTotCap=2.334E-05 Occurrence 
info=CHICAGO ILLINOIS SUMMER, 07/21 09:00 - 09:10
   **   ~~~   ** Expected range for VolumeFlowperRatedTotalCapacity=
[3.3560E-05--6.7130E-05]

 *************  ** Warning ** 
COIL:DX:COOLINGBYPASSFACTOREMPIRICAL "HEAT PUMP ACDXCOIL 1" - Air 
volume flow rate per watt of rated total cooling
   *************  **   ~~~   **   This error occurred 82155 times.

I have filled out the fields using suitable air flow rates and 
cooling capacity, with their ratios in the aboved range, but the 
errors kept there still.

Would you have a check and shed a light on this issue? Thank you

I would upload the file to the problem area.

Eric
