Hello all,
I can't understand what exactly is causing this error:
** Severe ** AirLoopHVAC:UnitaryHeatPump:AirToAir = PSZ HP F014 HEAT PUMP
** ~~~ ** ... air flow rate = 2.9490954E-002 in fan object PSZ HP F014 SUPPLY FAN is less than the maximum HVAC system air flow rate in cooling mode.
** ~~~ ** The Supply Air Flow Rate During Cooling Operation is reset to the fan flow rate and the simulation continues.
** Severe ** AirLoopHVAC:UnitaryHeatPump:AirToAir = PSZ HP F014 HEAT PUMP
** ~~~ ** ... air flow rate = 2.9490954E-002 in fan object PSZ HP F014 SUPPLY FAN is less than the maximum HVAC system air flow rate in heating mode.
** ~~~ ** The Supply Air Flow Rate During Heating Operation is reset to the fan flow rate and the simulation continues.
The total cooling capacity is 488.18 W, so the maximum air flow rate should be 488.18*0.00006041 = 0.029490954 m3/s
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Miroslav
