I am trying to simulate CentralHeatPumpSystem with a geothermal loop. The hourly results indicate no flow through the geothermal loop (source). Could you hint what might be going wrong. Here are "some" of the errors I am getting:
** Warning ** Capacity ratio as a function of temperature curve output is not equal to 1.0
** ~~~ ** (+ or - 10%) at reference conditions for ChillerHeaterPerformance:Electric:EIR= CO2CHILLERHEATERPERF
** ~~~ ** Curve output at reference conditions = 1.166

** ~~~ ** During Warmup, Environment=WINTER DESIGN DAY IN OC, at Simulation time=01/15 00:00 - 00:10
** ~~~ ** Reset reference temperature to one greater than the inlet temperature
