RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Air conditioning

Dear Juan Pablo,

I do not think that there is a method to simulate the exact situation that you show on the drawing.

As an alternative to an exact solution: For each room which is served by two different air conditioners, you might consider dividing the room into two rooms and letting each air conditioner serve one half.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Air conditioning

I have a case of air conditioning, suppose there are two areas (A and B) in Zone A is a 2-ton air conditioner and the area B is a 3-ton air conditioning, but the air conditioned area B flow not only serves your area, but also distributed in the area A. Now E + define two areas A and B, and each one will define your thermostat, then I have two objects HVACTemplate: Thermostat, two objects HVACTemplate: Zone: Unitary and two objects HVACTemplate: System: Unitary, when I rezolver the problem above, declare another object in HVACTemplate: Zone: Unitary with the same name but with distribution zone A team from the area B, and E + I get an error that is repeated elements. My problem is not the mistakes, but how to solve this case.

I send a picture as is the situation, make the air conditioning case named "Unidad Evaporadora 1" is in zone B and the other air conditioner may be any other that represents the area A. As additional data, these air conditioners are old, not have a record of information so I have no technical data of both the evaporator equipment, especially information flow of air from the evaporator, evaporator motors, etc. Condensing units if I have information's.
