[EnergyPlus_Support] Primary-Secondary System zero flow issue



Greetings,

I have a primary and secondary chilled water system, and I am keeping
having zero flow.  I have specified the primary pump consumption and
flow rate for the primary chilled water loop, but the primary loop and
condenser loop (Autosized) is zero flow.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Miao(Eric)
