Unexpected results in energy consumption with HVAC-template ideal load air system
I am analyzing the results of two idf files with ideal loads using hvac-template and hvac-detailed.
I am finding unexpected results. I am considering the original location (Buffalo, NY, USA), which has a winter-dominated climate. However, the ideal load for cooling (257.92 GJ) is 2.3 times larger than that for heating (111.28 GJ). On the other hand, for the idf with HVAC-detailed, the energy for heating (225.11 GJ) is much larger than that for cooling (70.95 GJ), which seems to be far more reasonable than the results for ideal loads.
I wonder what is happening and why??
