Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: how to size component and plant



Are you saying you:

1) autosized all your equipment (as shown in the previous email)
2) included zone and system sizing objects
3) turned on sizing in the simulation control object

and the equipment sizes ARE NOT reported in the eio file?
