[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Problem with Peak results in Summary Reports: a suggestion

["ecoeficientees" <ecoeficiente@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry Jean but peak values in summary reports come from Simulation results, not sizing results. I know the option for load averaging but it is only available for sizing calculation so it does not solve the problem of simulation peak values in Summary Reports.
