2015-09-17 10:03:24 -0500 | asked a question | Is it possible to model a hybrid heat pump system in eQuest, possibly by adjusting CAP and EIR curves? Is it possible to model a hybrid heat pump system in eQuest, possibly by adjusting the CAP and EIR curves? The proposed hybrid heat pump system is set up with one WSHP loop with boilers and cooling tower, where each heat pump uses the standard refrigeration cycle for cooling but uses only a water coil for heating without a refrigeration cycle for heating (with the loop temperature reset based on outdoor air temp). eQuest appears to eliminate the heating choice when selecting heat pump. As a work-around I tried using a packaged single zone, but it will only allow a 2-pipe, HW, or Domestic water coil for heating, and on the cooling side only allows a CW or WSHP loop for water cooled condenser. I seem not to be able to put the both the heating and cooling of the hybrid heat pump on the same loop to achieve the energy "sharing". So another thought I had was to play around with the heating CAP and EIR curves to model the heating as typical water coils. Any suggestions on how best to model the hybrid heat pump system? |

For convectors/baseboard, when I'm modeling an existing building, instead of auto sizing I'd like to enter in btuh of the existing equipment but the field is U factor times area. What does this actually mean? Btuh divided by the delta T? |

2014-12-10 11:12:32 -0500 | answered a question | Error "An unhandled exception has occurred. Access violation - no RTTI data!" I fixed it. What I did was: 1) opened an older version of the model in open studio 2) did a "save as" with a new file name 3) exited open studio 4) opened the new model's .osm file in notepad, selected all, deleted all text to make it blank 5) opened the corrupted model's .osm file in notepad, selected all, copied all text, and then pasted the copied text of the corrupted model into the new blank text file. 6) Saved the new text file and close the text files 7) Open the new model in openstudio, and waalaaa! it no longer crashes. Hopefully there will not be any other effects of doing this (like losing any of my modeling changes). |
2014-12-10 10:21:07 -0500 | asked a question | Error "An unhandled exception has occurred. Access violation - no RTTI data!" In Open studio 1.5.0 I keep getting an error "An unhandled exception has occurred. Access violation - no RTTI data!" when trying to navagate to the measures tab. Anyone know why this is happening? It doesn not occurr in all of my models. I noticed that the measures disappeared from the folders but I copied the files back in from the previous version of the model. I've tried to reload through sketchup but the error still crashes the program. I don't want to lose all my work! Help! |
2014-12-09 04:45:34 -0500 | marked best answer | How can I get EnergyPlus results in English (I-P) units when running OpenStudio? When using open studio, where do I find a measure or change a setting that will give me the same Energy Plus Results in English units? Metric doesn't do me any good - I don't have time to convert all of my results. Is there a report to load that will do this or a setting I need to change? I've already changed open studio preferences to English (I-P). |
