[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Heating/Cooling load

["Jean marais" <jeannieboef@xxxxxxxxx>]

Zone/Sys refers to the zone equipment, for example the Terminal Units (be they uncontrolled dampers, dampers with fans for recirculation mixing and extra coils, etc), Fancoils, etc. The star "*" is a wild card character so the output will list each equipment in all zones (you can replace it with a specific equipment name).

The second is the output for just the IdealAirLoads System (which may not be the only system in operation).
