How to calculate zone wise load from IdealLoad system or by Custom metering?
Hello All,
I want to calculate (break down) zone wise load in my EnergyPlus idf. I have idealLoad system and tried to calculate zone wise load by typing in Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Heating Energy,RunPeriod;
but it is always less than Output:Meter,DistrictHeating:Facility,RunPeriod;
. The same goes for Cooling energy as well. Is there something wrong?
I have also tried to add a Meter:Custom to find individual zone's load by looking at the .mtd file and have added the following code.
Meter:Custom,
Waseem,
DistrictHeating,
*,
Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Heating Energy;
This is not working as well. Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks
Kindest Regards
Waseem
