Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Fan Coil Behavier.

1) I don't understand your first question. From your second question, I
think you understand
how the EPlus fan coil is controlled. Basically the water flow rate is
varied to meet the load.
2) We have a project underway to add to the capabilities of the fan coil
model. One addition
would be a cycling fan coil - basically what is found in many hotels. We
also want to implement
a variable speed fan unit, since these are available and save energy. If
you have any other suggestions,
now is the time to make them.

Problem 1 is that Energyplus – EP in the simulation during this hours changes the water flow in the coils, and tempreture diferance, so that it can meet the set point temperature, increasing the coils capacity and not corresponding to what really happens in the Building. Does anyone know why it does this? I´ve tried limiting the maximum and minimum water flow rates in the fan coil object without any successes.
