[EnergyPlus_Support] Extremely high user design load for heating for HVAC system 3

[Qianmin Zhang <zqianmin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

First I want some help to better understand the result. Under HVAC Summary, for both heating, cooling, and airflow rate, there are two objects, one is calculated design, one is user design. I'm not that understand the difference between these two. Is there any relation between these two? Which document should I read to get know these things?

From the report summary, user design load for heating is much too high from my simulation. I used HVAC template, and I don't think I make any special change in my.idf file regarding the system. The weather data I used is Sacramento, CA. I found "zone/sys sensible heating rate" is really large. Could you take a look at my .idf and tell me the problem? It's a simply model. Thanks a lot.

Qianmin
