Question

I have turned off infiltration, ventilation, occupants and casual gains from my model to test the solar load portion only. However I still see loads attributed with "Convective" and "Latent" (albeit small). 
 Should these loads exist in my calculation, if the below suggests "Convective" is from infiltration or ventilation air & "Latent" is from occupants, casual and infiltration only? 
 Also, can I tabulate individual gains for each room? The "Results" tab shows total sensible and total latent loads only, whereas the "Graph" views shows the individual loads, but not that can be read off accurately. 
 The description below taken from an older thread; 
 
 Solar Load This is the direct and diffuse solar loads through glazed components (windows\rooflights) 
 Fabric Load This is the sensible load from fabric components (walls, floors, roofs etc) 
 Convective Load This is the sensible load from infiltration. It also includes any fresh air or conditioned air introduced locally to the room 
 Latent Load This is the latent load from people, equipment and infiltration. 
 Casual Load This is the sensible load from people, lighting and equipment. 
 
 Thanks, 
 Graeme

Hi Graeme, 
 Rooms 01, 11 and 12 have an air change rate of 0.5 per hr specified, as below. 
 
 Changing this to 0 will resolve the issue. If you wish to apply similar conditions to a group of rooms I would recommend using Global Change, this will ensure that no rooms are missed.
