Very helpful, Brent.  Thanks! I’ve had the same issue and was not sure what happened for the out-of-bounds periods.

If you want to ignore the warnings and run HeatExchanger:AirToAir:SensibleAndLatent outside of the approved range, then it is important to input the same effectiveness values at 75% and 100% flow.  Those values create a linear model for effectiveness vs. flow and it can easily be the case that out-of-range flows produce nonsense effectiveness values.  You need a flat, or at least very shallow, slope for that linear model and setting the effectiveness values to be the same at 75% and 100% does that.
