You can run your model using IdeaLoad system controlled by a constant (or variable) thermostat and after compare District Heating and Cooling in both cases
According my experience differences are quite small.

Asunto: [EnergyPlus_Support] Thermal mass
Sir
I want to find out the effect of Thermal mass, so i model two type of different wall having almost same U-value but different heat capacity
( density X specific heat ) and simulate. But the profile of zone temperature for 24 hour are same. So how can i model the thermal mass effect ?
