[EnergyPlus_Support] Air flow rate warning
Dear All,
I am attempting to model a 5 zone 10 storey building's HVAC system using the COMPACT HVAC input. As far as I can see I have set up the system in the manner as the COMPACT:HVAC 5 Zone VAV water cooled example file however when I go to run the model I get the following severe error message for each of the 15 zones as follows (5 zones the ground floor, middle floors and top floor):
Invalid Number in Numeric Field#1 (Maximum air flow rate), value=SPACEG-1 DAMPER INLET, in SINGLE DUCT:VAV:REHEAT=SPACEG-1 VAV REHEAT
************* IDF Context for following error/warning message:
************* 6021 SINGLE DUCT:VAV:REHEAT,
************* 6022 SPACEG-2 VAV Reheat, !
************* 6023 COMPACT HVAC-ALWAYS 1, !
************* 6024 SPACEG-2 Damper Outlet, !
************* 6025 SPACEG-2 Zone Equip Inlet, !
************* 6026 SPACEG-2 Damper Inlet,
When I alter the reheat type from electric to hot water or none, 2 severe errors appear as follows:
************* IDF Context for following error/warning message:
************* 6178 SINGLE DUCT:VAV:REHEAT,
************* 6179 SPACEG-5 VAV Reheat, !
************* 6180 COMPACT HVAC-ALWAYS 1, !
************* 6181 SPACEG-5 Damper Outlet, !
************* 6182 SPACEG-5 Zone Equip Inlet, !
************* 6183 SPACEG-5 Damper Inlet, !-
** Severe ** Invalid Number in Numeric Field#1 (Maximum air flow rate), value=SPACEG-5 DAMPER INLET, in SINGLE DUCT:VAV:REHEAT=SPACEG-5 VAV REHEAT
** Severe ** Possible incorrect IDD File
** ~~~ ** IDD Version:"IDD_Version 1.3.0.018"
** ~~~ ** Possible Invalid Numerics or other problems
** Fatal ** Errors occurred on processing IDF file. Preceding condition(s) cause termination.
************* EnergyPlus Terminated--Fatal Error Detected. 0 Warning; 2 Severe Errors
I have adjusted the air flow rate to see if this gets rid of the error but to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas as to how I may solve this?
Kind Regards,
Kevin
