    Energy Calculation - HWS and occupancy

      Product(s): Hevacomp
      Version(s): V8i
      Environment: N/A
      Area: Mechanical Designer
      Subarea: Design Database

    Problem

    Hot Water Usage is reported as zero upon running the Design Database Energy calculation.

    Solution

    The Hot water usage calculation is dependent on litres used per person per day, so a result of zero usually means that the room is unoccupied.

    Please go to room data for the relevant room(s) and ensure the occupancy is not set to zero.

    Alternatively Global Change can be used to edit this setting for multiple rooms.
