When looking at the timestep output from my program I noticed the report variable Zone/Sys Sensible Cooling energy reporting non-zero values despite the temperature of the zone being well below the cooling setpoint at all timesteps.
I began testing the HVAC template example files and noticed the same occurrence despite eliminating the cooling system and outdoor air.
I was hoping someone could explain why the output variable Zone/Sys Sensible Cooling Energy reports cooling values (albeit quite small); however, cooling is completely turned off and there is no outdoor air going to the zone, in addition,
I shrunk infiltration to a tiny value.
All wisdom appreciated!
