Conversion of solar radiation for maximum heat load

Hello

Checking the effect of solar radiation on maximum heat load. This model is just a simple box with a small window.

Comparing the "Zone Windows Total Heat Gain Rate" and "Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Sensible Heating Rate" in Output:Variable, it was confirmed that there was a significant difference between the two.

I checked the "SizingSummary" and found that the "Design calculated Load" and "Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Sensible Heating Rate" had similar load values.

Where does the "Zone Windows Total Heat Gain Rate" number disappear to?

This may be a silly question, but please tell me!

Thank you!
