Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Reheat Coil Control

[Jean Marais <jeannieboef@xxxxxxxxx>]

Two options. 1) make the availibility of the gas furnace coil schedule always-0 or 2) set a setpointmanager:singelzone on the exit of the heating coil with the setpoint limits from say 4 low and 15 high...this will make the furnace coil only heat up air to a max of 15 degC and the reheat coil will do the rest of the work.

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about controlling my electric reheat coil in AirTerminal:Constant Volume Air:Reheat.

I have a single zone office space, with DX cooling coil and gas furnace. To control humidity in the zone in early occupied hours of a summer day, I have set up a humidistat with max humidity ratio setpoint manager. The setpoint node is located on my cooling coil outlet.

When I look at my hourly results, I see that humidity is controlled in my zone, but the Reheat Coil electric consumption is zero; instead, the gas furnace is generating heat in those early occupied hours of summer days.

So, my question is how I should make the reheat coil work rather than the furnace?

Thank you very much for your help,

Ladan
