Cooling Energy Consumption is Zero in Openstudio Results

Hello, I'm unable to obtain cooling loads or the cooling energy consumption in the simulation results, despite the heating load being visible.

Here's what I've checked so far: -I have verified that both heating and cooling loads are correctly assigned to thermal zones with reasonable setpoints. -I have reviewed the properties of the cooling coil to ensure that none of its values are set to zero. -I have compared heating and cooling schedules and the configuration of the coils, but I have not identified any significant differences that would explain why heating is visible while cooling remains elusive.

A similar question was asked about two years ago. I tried to repeat the steps suggested in the responses, but the issue remains unresolved. Hence, I've decided to open a new question.

However, I see that "Cooling Minimum Air Flow" is set to 0 in the Thermal Zones>Cooling Sizing Parameters. I am not sure it has something with the problem. image description
