Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Conditional HVAC template



If you want to control operative temperature instead of just sensible temperature then you should replace that thermostat by  a ZoneControl:Thermostat:OperativeTemperature.  To do this run your simulation with the HVACTemplate as it is now. Then find the expanded idf file generated ('.expidf'), open it in idf editor and modify thermostat and related objects. Then report Operative temperature and make sure those two described situations don't occur. If they do, either make cooling sizing factor bigger or investigate a little bit when and why this might be happening and plan a strategy accordingly.

Hope this answers your question.

Best Santiago.

Deal All,


I want to write a conditional schedule for Cooling Setpoint Schedule Name item at HVACTemplate:Thermostat object, but the given instruction is more complicated than what I have done so far. It goes as follows:
"The operative temperature should not exceed 27°C for more than 50 hours throughout the year and 3 
consecutive hours. At all times, the maximum operative temperature should not exceed 30°C."
How can I write such schedule? Thanks in advance!
