Heat sensible and latent - configuration MVHR sensible and latent

Hi everybory, I am trying to set up a sensitive latent mechanical heat recovery (MVHR) system. The building that previously had natural ventilation presents some slight improvement in thermal comfort when MVHR is deployed. However, when we create other MVHR models with difficult parameters (setpoint, energy efficiency, schedules, etc.), these models have no change in thermal comfort. I was wondering what I may be doing wrong or what I may be forgetting to configure in the parameters. Below is a list of the parameters/groups configured so far. If anyone has a 3D model that can envision me so that I can compare the settings, I will be very grateful. - ZoneHVAC:EnergyRecoveryVentilator; - ZoneHVAC:EnergyRecoveryVentilator:Controller; - ZoneHVAC:EquipmentList; - ZoneHVAC:EquipmentConnections; - Fan:OnOff; - HeatExchanger:AirToAir:SensibleAndLatent; - Controller:OutdoorAir - OutdoorAir:Mixer; - NodeList; - OutdoorAir:NodeList; - SetpointManager:Scheduled.

Thanks for attention.
