about getting annual heating and cooling load based on specific location
I have a specific objective that I am trying to obtain with Energy Plus. I am trying to get the heating or cooling load for a typical home for an entire year. That is I want the total heat that the home loses or the total heat gained by the home for each of 8760 hours from January to December for a home at a specific location. I cannot seem to find how to get this information out of Energy Plus. I have started by creating simple 4 zone model, I was able to get peak heat and cooling load by using design day, but I am not able to find the parameters that I can edit to get annual (24*360) hrs data Please suggest me..
At the moment, I am able to simulate the day load profile (24 hours in 15 min duration). still looking for 8760 hours of load data for a single-family house. did you find the parameters to simulate the yearly heating/cooling load profile on an hourly basis? looking for suggestion from you.
