[EnergyPlus_Support] the cooling capacity of VAV system and Fan coil system

["llyymmff" <liyuemingff@xxxxxxx>]

Hello, all
I have a question about the cooling capaity for the different air 
conditioning systems.
I want to compare the power use of the fan coil system and the VAV 
system, and so I set up the same building, same set point temperature, 
same weather data and all the other same conditions for these two 
systems.  
But why cannot I get the same capacity for these two systems? The part 
load ratio of these two systems are also different at the same time. 
I think that the same building and outdoor/indoor conditions will 
cause the same load, could you please to tell me why the capacity is 
different now?

Best regards!
