[EnergyPlus_Support] Adding more chillers doesn't reduce the autosized value



Dear all, 
I am modeling baseline for some project, and I am trying to follow ASHRAE's 90.1-2007 section G3.1.3.7 "Type and Number of Chillers (Systems 7 & 8)" by adding more chillers until no chiller's size is above 2813[kW] (refer to table G3.1.37). The problem is no matter how many chillers I add, this doesn't reduce the autosized value! it is always the same=4258257.73[W] for all chillers, while I expected to have this value divided on chiller's number I add, for example, for one chiller it was autosized to 4258257.73[W], for two chillers I expected it to be 4258257.73[W]/2=2129128.865[W], while it was autosized to 4258257.73[W] for each chiller!
Please advise.

Thank you very much,
Hisham.
