I am using OpenSudio 1.9.4, I wanted to know the HVAC consumption, I looked in others sources but I coudnt find the answer.

Fan is part of the Hvac system, so if I want to know the Hvac consumption of the month I have to sum the fan and cooling loads of monthly overview table ?

I understand what are you saying,but you are giving me the final result, the values of cooling. I want to know how to get there, is the cooling(electricity) the Rated Total Cooling Capacity (Watt) X time HVAC has to work ? Per example I know the equation of balance heat because I found in the Engineering reference of energyplus (PDF), I want to know the same, but about how the cooling is calculated.

Thanks for your time, but still isnt what I want, I want how is being calculated, like what are the equations, the variables, isnt the code of OpenStudio that I am looking for.

Hi all,

I am using OpenStudio 1.12.4, I want to know what equation is being used to know these values of cooling, I know that interior equipment is design level (Watt) X time that equipment is used (schedule). Is the cooling the Rated Total Cooling Capacity (Watt) X time HVAC has to work ? If it is like this, is there any way to know these values of time ?

I know the meter Cooling: Electricity can show cooling values and you choose the frequency, but like I said I want to know how do you get these cooling values.

My HVAC system is Packaged Rooftop Air Conditioner, used in OpenStudio.
