Zone air temperature results from Honeybee not meeting air conditioning temperature setpoint

Hello friends!

I am currently running a zone air temperature simulation using Honeybee. Normally, I use an OSM model created in SketchUp and run it directly in EnergyPlus. However, I would like to explore Honeybee because its visual outputs are easier to understand and communicate to a broader audience.

At the moment, I am trying to validate the Honeybee + EnergyPlus results by comparing them with my OpenStudio (OSM) + EnergyPlus simulation. Both models use the same constructions, internal loads (people, lighting, equipment), and AC setpoints.

However, when I compared the results, I noticed a significant difference in zone air temperature between the Honeybee model and the OpenStudio model. In particular, the zone air temperature from Honeybee remains far from the AC setpoint, unlike the results from OpenStudio, which closely follow the setpoint.

I have attached the comparison results from both simulations, along with the Grasshopper files used for the Honeybee simulation. I would really appreciate any insights or suggestions on what might be causing this difference.

Thank you very much!
