[EnergyPlus_Support] Curves for DX unit in heating mode



Dear members of the E+ team:

I am modeling a small DX unit with variable speed compressor. I found a fair set of curves for cooling mode in the program's data set (file PerfCurves.idf). However, I still need typical curves for heating mode, so I wonder if anybody can provide them or tell me where to search.

My second question concerns the DX model implemented in E+. As far as I know, this model does not consider that the EER changes with the speed of the compressor (EER normally increases as the compressor frequency decreases, reaches a maximum at about 60Hz and then decreases between 60Hz and 30Hz). Am I right? Is there some way to include this effect into the simulation? Is there some typical curve to model how EER changes with the speed ratio?

Best regards,
