2022-10-14 14:18:37 -0500 commented answer What's the COP/EER of Ideal Loads Air System

Yes, it's a way to make it more realistic. It's what I did, for now. Thank you!

2022-10-14 13:50:37 -0500 commented answer What's the COP/EER of Ideal Loads Air System

I have seen this sentence. I don't think it's saying COP is 1. I think it's talking about something like mechanical eff

Sure, Thanks. I think it would be better if it's clearly explained in the documents.

2022-10-14 01:38:02 -0500 marked best answer What's the COP/EER of Ideal Loads Air System

Hi, So I used "ZoneHVAC:IdealLoadsAirSystem" in one simulation case. I have the cooling and heating energy consumption. Just wondering, what's the COP/EER of this ideal air conditioning system? Thank you very much!

Hi, I wanna ask where can I find specific explanations of variables. I wanna output this variable named "Zone Thermal Comfort ASHRAE 55 Adaptive Model 90% Acceptability Status" The results show three numbers: 0, 1, -1 to represent the status.But I have no clue what does it mean. Where can I find the explanations? Thanks! image description
