Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Zerokit results viewer





You haven't requested any output variables only tables.  The SQL (and ESO) files are quite small.
 
Add this object:
 
Output:VariableDictionary,IDF,Unsorted; 
 
to your IDF and add whatever variables you may want to see (such as):

Output:Variable,*,Outdoor Dry Bulb,hourly;
Output:Variable,*,Zone Total Internal Total Heat Gain,hourly;
Output:Variable,*,Zone Mean Air Temperature,hourly;
Output:Variable,*,Zone Operative Temperature,hourly;
Output:Variable,*,Total Electric Demand,hourly;

There are more than 400 variables available to you for your project (you could of course select all).

I did request the sql output.But when i display it in zerokit, there is nothing to display -only the file name can be seen.I have attached with this email one of my simulation. can you pls have a look and let me know what i'm doing wrong.
I just want to display  total energy display, gas info, heating and cooling load and if possible solar thermal water. i need them as a graph so that i can easy compared them with of simulation. if i can display them like in the zerokit  example. that would save me lots of time.

Did you ask for SQL output in your IDF?  From the ZeroKit-ResultsView er:
 
Quick Start
  1. Request SQLite database output from EnergyPlus. You must be using EnergyPlus 5.0.0 or newer. Include one of the following lines in your idf:

    Output:SQLite, Simple;

    -or-

    Output:SQLite, SimpleAndTabular;

  2. Choose either Simple or SimpleAndTabular. (ResultsViewer does not use tabular data.) Once you request database output, all report variable and meter requests will be output to the database. You can view these in ResultsViewer.
  3. Click File->Open and browse to an eplusout.sql file in the EnergyPlus output folder. ResultsViewer is packaged with an example file you can use to explore the software s capabilities. You do not need to run EnergyPlus
  4. Examine output variables on either of two main views, table view or tree view, on the left.
  5. To plot an item, right click for a context menu or double click for a line plot.
  6. Drag items from each view onto a plot. In a line plot, the data will be added as an additional curve. In a flood plot, the data will be replaced with the dragged item.

Also i have been trying to use the zerokit-resultsview er software for energyplus .i can't get any information display. i try to contact the technical service but my email was rejected stating that my email is not on the list. Does anyone know how to get it to display information like in the example provided.

What technical service email did you try to contact?

You can ask questions here or at the helpdesk (energyplus-support@ gard.com).  I can direct them to the proper person if they are not on the helpdesk.
