The value of "Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is not zero in sizing and run period. There isnt any central air supply nor any other air supplier. Can I send you the idf file in a way?

I have considered "ZoneHVAC:Baseboard:Convective:Water" and a boiler in a loop because I just want to have the radiator as the heat supplier. I have not considered anything related to Air supply. I dont know why this Air supply is added to the system. It might be due to the zone autosizing, but I am not sure about it.

"Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is a variable in Output:Variable, and I saw the value of this variable in the released spreadsheet.

Hi there,

I want to simulate a single room with a simple radiator. To do so, I have applied "ZoneHVAC:Baseboard:Convective:Water" + boiler in a loop. The simulation doesn't have any problem, however, in the reported outputs the variable "Zone Air System Sensible Heating Energy" is not zero!!!! Does it mean that another heat supplier (with air flow) in addition to the radiator is considered in the simulation???

Thanks in advance
