Error when using PTHP
Hello everyone!
I'm using the OpenStudio plugin to model a building. However, I encountered an error during the process, and the simulation is not running.
When I check the 'Turn on ideal air loads' checkbox in the thermal zones, the simulation runs successfully. However, when I uncheck the 'Turn on ideal air loads' checkbox and add a PTHP (Packaged Terminal Heat Pump) for the simulation, an error occurs. I need to run the simulation with PTHP.
I haven't configured specific settings for PTHP; I proceeded with autosize. The error message is "Fatal Unable to determine fan air flow rate." How can I resolve this?
Please, I need your help.
@subong could you share your .osm model its difficult to give advice without taking a deeper look
I changed my Cooling and Heating schedules. So, I got the problem. Thank you for having support!
Yes, that is the issue. The cooling and heating air flow rate was 0. At least this question shows that the messge you got should have more information so it is easily corrected.
