Thread-topic: hourly load variables?

Hey all,

Quick question on what seems like it should be a simple issue. What variable or meter can I use to extract the hourly loads of the building (or specific zones) in EnergyPlus? Looking in the .rdd and .mdd files, I don’t see what looks right.

For now I’m using this variable: Cooling:EnergyTransfer [J](Hourly)

But I can’t find that defined in the engineering reference. I’m assuming that if the cooling system meets the loads in all hours, that will be equivalent to the loads, but I can’t find the load calculation directly.

Thanks,

Neal
