I have a functioning EnergyPlus model in version 8.2 that runs without any severe errors. I would like to be able to utilize some of the PAT functionality of OpenStudio and have been working to import the EnergyPlus IDF into OpenStudio 1.5. Unfortunately, whenever I do, I receive the following error:
"File is not valid to draft strictness"
The two errors mentioned are: Field level data error of type DataType Error is in an object of type 'Sizing:System', named '', in field 20. correct type. Field level data error of type DataType Error is in an object of type 'PlantLoop', named 'Water_Loop Mixed Water Loop', in field 18.
This error occurs when both directly importing through OpenStudio application, and when importing the IDF using the SketchUp Plugin.
I am trying to understand what objects need to be altered so that I can import the EnergyPlus model into OpenStudio. Any help would be appreciated
