[EnergyPlus_Support] Obtaining correct chiller outputs



Hi , i was trying to run an annual simulation designbuilder until i realized that the method used within DB to calculate chiller electricity consumption doesnt take into account the chiller performance curves that are entered into energyplus. I have added the lines below to my idf but the chiller consumption reported is almost constant for the whole year. Am i missing something here ? I was expecting the electric consumption to vary with chiller load.

Output:Variable,*,Chiller Electric Consumption,daily;
