Hi guys,
I simulated a building for the winter period (December to February) and found that the total EUI for these three months is 42.545 kWh/m², with 25.446 kWh/m² attributed to heating. I also visualized the energy balance for the same building and period, and I’ve attached the chart. I have couple of questions, and appreciate your help.
- Why does the energy balance breakdown in the chart show data for all 12 months, even though my simulation is for just 3 months?
- To understand the percentage of total energy used for heating, how can I interpret this chart? For example, are the energy gains and losses in the chart directly related to the total EUI of the building?
- Why does the balance output in the Honeybee annual loads analysis panel show 11 data sets instead of 12, as expected for the number of months?
Thank you in advance
