"Peak Flow Rate" values do not "stick" after changed

Hello all

I´m trying to insert 80 liters per day hot water consumption (Portuguese regulation stuff, OpenStudio 1.6.0, E+ 8.2)

I have 1 hour consumption Schedule, and I am trying to change the flow rate on the shower and sink (2x) to 0.000111 x 60s x 60mn, and this would go up to 79.9

Yes, I saw the video on the water heating systems, it works, but actually the value in "Peak Flow Rate" does not "stick" there, and a new one stays at zero.

I tried in another computer and the issue persists: is it only me or this model? I tried altering in Energyplus 8.2, which is easy, but when I import I loose the corrected values, as the systems are lost.

Thanks in advance.

"Peak Flow Rate" values do not "stick" after changed

Hello all

I´m trying to insert 80 liters per day DHW (domestic hot water water) consumption (Portuguese regulation stuff, OpenStudio 1.6.0, E+ 8.2)

I have 1 hour consumption Schedule, and I am trying to change the peak flow rate on the shower and sink (2x) to 0.000111 x 60s x 60mn, and this would go up to 79.979.9 liters (In OpenStudio it is located under Loads / Water Use Consumption / Water Fixtures / peak flow rate)

Yes, I saw the video on the water heating systems, it works, but actually the value in "Peak Flow Rate" does not "stick" there, and a new newly created one stays at zero.

I tried in another computer and the issue persists: is it only me or this model? I tried altering in Energyplus 8.2, which is easy, but when I import I loose the corrected values, as the systems are lost.

Can someone give it a try to check if it is a bug before reporting? Or any alternatives to make it work?

Thanks in advance.
