Simulating a single room + radiator in EnergyPlus

Hi there,

I want to simulate a single room with a simple radiator. To do so, I have applied "ZoneHVAC:Baseboard:Convective:Water" + boiler in a loop. The simulation doesn't have any problem, however, in the reported outputs the variable "Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is not zero!!!! Does it mean that another heat supplier (with air flow) in addition to the radiator is considered in the simulation???

Thanks in advance
