[TRNSYS-users] Confusing results with a bui simulation.

Dear TRNSYS users,


   I am running a simulation, testing the heating needs of a building and the weird thing is that I get also cooling values for a zone. If I change the heating schedule for that zone I don't get any cooling results. While in the summary results (T56_std-Output.txt) the cooling values appear in the results, the sum of cooling power for that particular zone is zero (T56_std-q.xlsx) making it more complex to find the error. 
  As you can see in the attached files the problem is spotted in ZONE 11 and month May. Though, if you open "T56_std-q.xlsx" the sum of ZONE_11 (11_COOL , column AA) is zero. The results are correct if I use the FIXED20 heating schedule. (See bui_info.txt for more information about bui)
 Does anyone else encounter similar problems? 
 

Thank you for your time,
Elias
