How reset the UFactorTimesAreaValue of Heating Coil Water loop?

I tried to reset the UFactorTimesArea value of the heating coil water loop. Along the inheritance diagram, i found the relevant objects. After i organize them together, by: image description

The error shows up when i load the measure into OpenStudio: image description It says the assignment is dynamic. However, it is better to do it dynamically, because i do need the check of the heating coil for UFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized(). My question is how to assign it statically? Or is it because my object inheritance is not right?

air_loops.each do |air_loop| supply_components = air_loop.supplyComponents

      #find coilheating on loop
      supply_components.each do |supply_component|
          heating_coil=supply_component.to_WaterToAirComponent.to_CoilHeatingWater
          if heating_coil.is_initialized         
               UFactorTimeArea= heating_coil.isUFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized //here the error occurs
               if (UFactorTimeArea.isUFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized)
                    UFactorTimeArea.setUFactorTimesAreaValue(user_input);
               else
                    UFactorTimeArea.setUFactorTimesAreaValue(user_input);
               end

            end

It says the assignment is dynamic. However, it is better to do it dynamically, because i do need the check of the heating coil for ~~UFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized().~~ UFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized().

My question is how to assign it statically? Or is it because my object inheritance is not right?

air_loops.each do |air_loop| supply_components = air_loop.supplyComponents air_loop.supplyComponents #find coilheating on loop supply_components.each do |supply_component| heating_coil=supply_component.to_WaterToAirComponent.to_CoilHeatingWater if heating_coil.is_initialized UFactorTimeArea= heating_coil.isUFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized //here the error occurs if (UFactorTimeArea.isUFactorTimesAreaValueAutoSized) UFactorTimeArea.setUFactorTimesAreaValue(user_input); else UFactorTimeArea.setUFactorTimesAreaValue(user_input); end end end
