Why the heating load of ideal ideal-loads-air-system keeps zero.

Greetings. I am new to using OpenStudio for building heating and cooling load simulations. The versions I am using include SketchUp 2022, OpenStudio Application Version 1.7.0, and EnergyPlus 23.2. In my simulation, I have selected ideal air loads. Upon completion of the simulation, I exported the hourly load data from EnergyPlus results to a CSV file, and the results were successfully generated . However, in the OpenStudio results, specifically under the HVAC Load Profiles section, there are no heating load values displayed.

I have come across some information indicating that this issue could be due to OpenStudio converting heating load data into heating water load. However, it seems that this issue has been addressed in the newer versions. Could you kindly suggest some possible reasons for this issue? I would greatly appreciate your assistance. Thank you very much.
