I don't see in code how this could happen. I do see how the window AC flow rate could be more than the cooling coil, but not the other way around.
I am glad you found a work around for this, your fix is exactly what you should have done.
Could you attach your autosized input file to an email and send your question to:

I am simulating a number of buildings using the ZoneHVAC:WindowAirConditioner object.
though the simulations run, i get many thousands of warnings regarding outlet temps and air volume per watt of cooling. everything is set to be auto-sized. When i go into the eio file i notice that the maximum supply airflow rate for the ZoneHVAC:WindowAirConditioner object is less than half the rated airflow rate for the associated cooling coil. when i take the cooling coil auto-sized value for rated air flow and enter it into the idf as the maximum supply air flow for the WindowAirConditioner all the errors go away.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
thanks,
Will
