Sizing

Sizing:Zone

A series of actuators called "Sizing:Zone" is available. These offer a way to override the results of zone sizing calculations. The unique identifier for each is the name of the Zone Input object. The following control types are available:

  • Zone Design Heating Air Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Zone Design Cooling Air Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Zone Design Heating Load (W)
  • Zone Design Cooling Load (W)
  • Zone Design Heating Vol Flow (m\(^{3}\)/s)
  • Zone Design Cooling Vol Flow (m\(^{3}\)/s)

System Sizing

A series of actuators called "Sizing:System" is available. These offer a way to override the results of air system sizing calculations. The unique identifier is the name of the AirLoopHVAC input object. The following control types are available:

  • Main Supply Volume Flow Rate (m\(^{3}\)/s)
  • Main Supply Coincident Peak Cooling Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Main Supply Coincident Peak Heating Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Main Supply Noncoincident Peak Cooling Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Main Supply Noncoincident Peak Heating Mass Flow Rate (kg/s)
  • Main Heating Volume Flow Rate (m\(^{3}\)/s)
  • Main Cooling Volume Flow Rate (m\(^{3}\)/s)
