I am trying to implement night ventilation into my energyplus model, but it is not working (no change in air temperatures and energy use, etc.) What I did: -In which NightventAvail is a EMS adjusted schedule. The output is 1 during nights in the summer months. Other periods it is 0 (checked the output via output:variables) -In which Officemedium HVACOperationSchd is the HVAC schedule. I used the same schedule as was used in the box of 'Fan Schedule Name' in AvailabilityManager:NightCycle. -In which NightventTemp is an EMS adjusted schedule, which varies between 19.75 and 22.75°C depending on outside conditions (checked the output via output:variables).

The problem is that it is not working. I also tried to assign it in the AvailabilityManager:assignmentList like this: . What I also tried was switch the Applicability Schedule Name to an always on schedule, and switch the NightventTemp to a normal schedule value without the use of EMS. All of this didn't work.

I hope one of you knows what I am doing wrong.
