[Equest-users] Thermostat Setting

[Howe, Timothy]

Just re-name the file "not-a-top-secret-nuclear-facility.pd2".  Should be all good.

Can't you just remove the sensitive project information from the files? A text editor should allow you to find any "incriminating evidence" and you can switch the weather file location so we won't even know where in the world it's located :-) Unless you're modeling the pentagon, in which case I'll quiet down.

 

And I doubt this is it, but you might want to double check your header in the hourly report to make sure you're not looking at just the heating setpoint (see attached pg.2 and below). The space isn't being cooled at all, correct?

Unfortunately due to the sensitive nature of the project I cannot send the files.  I have checked and my heating/cooling schedules are assigned to the right locations.  

Could it be related to the design temperatures I have indicated for each zone?  The tstat schedules are as I have stated below but I have the design temperatures at 74 cooling and 72 heating.  The load temperature (in the space definition) is 70.  My throttling range is 2.  Would any of this cause problems?

Susan,

While in detailed data edit go onto one of your thermal zone spreadsheets to look at your schedules. You will be able to see them easily from there. Make sure you haven't accidentally put your heating schedule in where your cooling schedule should be. If this doesn't work zip up your .inp and .pd2 files and send them to us.

Good luck,
Carol

	I have a model that does not seem to be switching the thermostat between heating and cooling.  When I output the hourly data for the Zone Thermostat Setting it seems to always be the heating setpoints (70 occupied and 64 unoccupied).  Any idea why this wouldn't be changing over to cooling setpoints (75 occupied and 82 unoccupied) during the warmer months?
	
	Thanks in advance.
