Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Control of AirTerminal:SingleDuct:VAV:Reheat - Sizing Problem

["Javed Iqbal eee.javed@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear German,

As advised, i made changes at the Central heating design supply air temperature and I could see few of the zones has reheat sizing (W) data in the html report, means its working to large extent. Few of the zones still shows zero capacities, could you enlightened me more in this direction, please?

Thank you for your valuable suggestions.

Central heating design supply aire temperature does not affect system design supply airflow but the temperature at the supply outlet which will affect how AHU coils and reheat coils are sized. You should use the maximum temperature from your setpoint manager at the heating coil outlet node. If you are using a reset as per G3.1.3.12 it would be Summer SP-11.1+2.77 (something as 16ºC).

If you set a central heating supply of 32.1 and do the same at zone level, the reheat coil sees the same temperature at its inlet and outlet, resulting in zero capacity.

That is as per G3.1.2.9..1,  sized supply-air-to-room-air temperature difference of  20degF (11.1degC) . All the Spaces winter set-point is 21degC so central heating design supply air tempretaire is 32.1 degC.

Which are heating design supply temperatures in system and zone sizing?

Dear All,

I assigned a typical VAV system (Baseline System 5) with reheat but there are many heating unmet hours in the zones served by the system. I did most of the quality checks (correct OA, zone setpoints, zone and system sizing etc.) to see where the problem lies. And i found ' AirTerminal:SingleDuct:VAV:Reheat' is NOT active or sizing is zero in HTML report. To further ascertain the cause of the problem, I plotted temperatures [ see attachment] at all the nodes to see the temperature regime. This also shows that reheat coil doesn't raise the air temperature to meet the room set-point.  

This is being simulated for CZ5A.

I also tried to look out for some solutions discussed here [ LINK LINK ] but unfortunately nothing works for me. 

I would appreciate any help in this regard.

Thank you,
