When using the reference buildings I recommend you to take a look to the chiller's electric consumption during a hot summer day. It goes down with the load.

Seems like the parameters of the bicubic  performance equation are not correct 

You might want to ask the EERE folks for more details

Hi All,

Has anyone revised a Commercial Ref Building IDF to model a different HVAC system type?

I'm looking for the most simple way to use the Com Ref Bldgs as a "basis" upon which to model a variety of diff HVAC systems. The purpose is to compare peak demand and annual energy use for typical buildings and system combinations.

I've already received one good suggestion from the E+ Tech Support. But I need to cast a wide net as time is short. Wondering if some from the larger community could chime in w/ their own experience or suggestion.

Note, my experienc level w/ E+ includes the last 5 days of tinkering w/ one of the ref bldg idfs and the "Getting Started" Exercise re: HVACTemplates. So, I'm pretty clueless.

thanks a million,
Will
