Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] VAV cooling still working when room T is lower than setpoint T

Find out which water cooling coil is requesting flow. Any flow request 
on the demand side of the loop with turn on the plant.
Report coil water inlet node volume flow rate for all water cooling coils.
This should tell you which cooling coil is operating. Then determine why 
this one (or more) coil(s) is operating.

It may be that the VAV cooling coil is trying to meet a low set point 
temperature even though the room thermostats are satisfied.
