[EnergyPlus_Support] Burner Efficiency

["Simge" <simgeandolsun@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear EnergyPlus Users,

Would you please let me know which efficiency is meant by the "Gas Burner Efficiency" under the Coil:Heating:Gas class of EnergyPlus? Is this the steady-state efficiency of the gas furnace or the AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency)? Would you please advice on how to reasonably convert 78% AFUE to "Gas Burner Efficiency" input of EnergyPlus? 

Thanks in advance for your help,

Best Regards,
