HVAC zone control error in OS
Hi,
I'm having trouble configuring HVAC systems in Openstudio. I added a 'Packaged Rooftop Air Conditioner', serving my Thermal Zone 2. When I ran the simulation, the error file said:
Program Version,EnergyPlus, Version 8.6.0-198c6a3cff, YMD=2017.02.07 14:20,IDD_Version 8.6.0
* Severe * IP: IDF line~5303 Object=CONTROLLER:MECHANICALVENTILATION, name=CONTROLLER MECHANICAL VENTILATION 1, Required Field=[Zone 1 Name] was blank.
*** 5467 SetpointManager:SingleZone:Reheat,
*** indicated Name=Setpoint Manager Single Zone Reheat 1
*** Only last 5 lines before error line shown.....
*** 5468 Setpoint Manager Single Zone Reheat 1, !- Name
*** 5469 Temperature, !- Control Variable
*** 5470 -99, !- Minimum Supply Air Temperature {C}
*** 5471 99, !- Maximum Supply Air Temperature {C}
*** 5472 , !- Control Zone Name
* Severe * IP: IDF line~5472 Error detected in Object=SETPOINTMANAGER:SINGLEZONE:REHEAT, name=SETPOINT MANAGER SINGLE ZONE REHEAT 1
* ~~~ * Field [Control Zone Name] is required but was blank
I set the "Control Zone" to a zone already, so I don't know how to correct the error. Can someone point out my error or what is missing please? Thank you.
I am using Windows 10, 64-bit and Openstudio 1.13
Are you sure you have a space assigned to your thermal zone?
Yes, all the spaces are assigned to zones.
Here is a thread that covers the CONTROLLER:MECHANICALVENTILATION error pretty thoroughly.
Also the SETPOINTMANAGER:SINGLEZONE:REHEAT error is touched on here and might be relevant.
Hopefully this helps!
Wow thanks @ryocha. I didn't see those threads when searching. The first thread had the answer. My weather file happened to be missing design days.
