RE: RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Curve fitting with sensor data for Coil:Cooling:DX module

[<adrianchong85@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for the prompt reply but How would the amount of fan heat be determined. 

Thanks in advance

Regards,

Adrian

Yes this is the correct approach. You must also back out fan heat when
you calculate capacity.

There is curve fitting tool supplied with EnergyPlus in the
Preprocess\HVACCurveFitTool folder.
