Custom Made Zone problems: Zone Energy Use Variables not generated / Local Weather File not Working

Hello Mostapha and Chris,

Two questions regarding EP components:

1) I n the attached file I am trying to calculate energy values for custom made zone, of a stand alone volume, but not all of Energy Use outputs are generated. Only Electric Light and Electric Equipment.

The runEnergySimulation report says "The following Report Variables were requested but not generated because IDF did not contain these elements or misspelled variable name -- check .rdd file".

2) When using a local Weather File and not the URL file location the EP runEnergySimulation is not working.

Thanks!

Dimitris

For point 1 you need to set the _isConditioned to True in the HB_createHBZones component.

For point 2, you have a space in the path (Dropbox (RAFT ...). You need to choose a path without blank spaces (though i think that in the updated version it is solved).
