RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Problem with start month





EPlus starting warm up can be a problem for some buildings.  The calculation can’t start without some initial conditions, so a warm up is required.  However, the warm up repeats the starting day until it is balanced.  A high mass building may not get there given pervious history.  I suggest that you try running more than one year simulation and look for the point where the calculation starts to repeat to define your whole year simulation.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Problem with start month

 

 

Hi,

Is there someone who can help me with the next problem:
I have entered my model house in E+ and it works. But, when I put the variables in Excel and compare the results in a grafic, I found a problem. If I start my year in January, then the temperature of this month is completly wrong. If I start my year in June, the the temperature in June is wrong. And the same for other months. Did I do something wrong? Did anyone had this problem before?

Thank you!
