I can't upload the file to unmethours. Is there another option for uploading an ..osm file?

Thanks, Ryan

I am running a simple (but large) building simulation.

There are two Thermal Zones:

• Zone_1 is 182,582 m²,
• Zone_2 is 295,868 m².

So the issue is, in our results, that the area of Zone1 is duplicated in Zone2 and the total area is equal to Area(Zone_1) x 2

Unfortunately, I can't attach the .osm file as unmethours only allows the file extenstions (see error in following image) to be uploaded. C:\fakepath\Capture.PNG

It would be nice to have descriptions for all the variables but for example, the output variables named "Facility Total Building Electric Demand Power", "Facility Total HVAC Electric Demand Power", and "Facility Total Electric Demand Power" will probably have some overlap. I would like to know what is included in these variables so that I can work with specific combinations of electric power.

Thank you,

Ryan

Thanks Dan! I tried using this program and the csv file contained four different values for the days 1/21 and 7/21. Have you ever experienced something like this before?

I would prefer to have them in excel format. I have no knowledge of R software, SQLite software. It seems like the variables listed in the .rdd file are not available in the openstudio "Possible output variables" tab and I'm not sure of a way to directly call these variables without some prior knowledge of SQLite or R.

I would like to access many of the variables. For example, one variable I would like to export is "Boiler Inlet Temperautre". In the .rdd file, it looks like "Output:Variable,*,Boiler Inlet Temperature,hourly; !- HVAC Average [C]"

At this URL in the second image of section requesting-output-variables, it mentions adding an output variable using a BCL coded object. I have done this and added the variables which I would like to look at in a .csv format. These variables are then located in a .eso(?) file named eplusout.eso. Is there a developed method to take these variables which are located in this file and export them to a excel file?

Thanks, Ryan

Hi, I am running an example from youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgeep...) and I have run into an error. The error seems to give me no useful information and I have had very little luck using google to try to figure out what is happening. Here is the error when I run the simulation.
