estimating thermal mass with Hybrid Model

Hello everybody,

I have added the Hybrid Model object in order to determine the temperature capacitance multiplier which would make my simulation results closer to my measured data. I needed to adjust thermal mass of my model without using the object ThermalMass. I entered the measured room temperature as a Schedule txt file, as required by the hybrid model, and after running the simulation the results look great but I wasn't able to find the temperature capacity multiplier determined by the hybrid model which would give me those results. Does anybody know where I can find this value in my output files/tables? I looked everywhere but I wasn't able to find it.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Cheers, Juanita
