[Feedback] Assigning Zone Groups to Multiplex
Posted: Tue May 23, 2017 3:42 pm
Hi,
With the creation of the HVAC thermal zones, it's been more of a hassle to assign rooms to the multiplex in the baseline.
Often times, the baseline thermal zones will be different than the proposed, for example there are times where the baseline warrants one HVAC system per floor where as that is not the case in the proposed.
Due to now only being able to assign from thermal zones rather than grouping schemes, it would be nice to have a separate "proposed" thermal zones group and "baseline" thermal zones group. I know that we can create a different baseline thermal zoning using the ASHRAE 90.1 App. G- PRM module and switching to the baseline model. But when we regenerate the baseline, the proposed HVAC zones overwrites the baseline.
Would be nice to have both!
Thanks,
