[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Invalid air loop component

["JV Dirkes II" <jvd2pe@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Don,

Following up on your suggestion, I have uncovered a couple more questions:
The Unitary System or Furnace system are geared toward single zone
applications (they require a controlling zone"), so they are less
applicable to my multi-zone requirement.  
I want to model a Terminal reheat system (ASHRAE 90.1 Baseline system
#5) with a DX coil and hot water coil which maintain a constant
discharge air temperature. The DXsystem: object lacks a heating coil,
though, and I'm now trying to figure out how to add that into the air
loop.
It occurs to me that I could let E+ autosize a (relatively) monster
reheat coil, but I'd rather get it to emulate the real system.  Any
guidance for adding that heating coil to the air loop?

Thanks!
