[EnergyPlus_Support] Fwd: Re: Compact PTHP expanding issues

["anarui.oliveira" <anarui.oliveira@xxxxxxxxx>]

Unless...
Reviewing the I/O reference... does "Packaged Terminal Heat Pump 
Total Zone Cooling Rate" include cooling effect due, not to the HVAC 
system itself, but to outside air insufflation?
Which would be the correct variables to check the actual 
heating/cooling loads addressed by the HVAC system, that is, that 
actually correspond to the PTHP working, and not just to the gross 
heat added/removed by air inlets/outlets?

zone to a single setpoint of 20ºC at the early months of the year... 
and turning on in cooling mode unnecessarily before zone temperature 
reaches 25ºC...
