Night Cycle consumption is not proportionate in both the cases.

Hello Everyone,

I have modeled the baseline case using the PIU HVAC system and in the
proposed case, SZR system is considered.

The temperature schedules & fan schedules are the same in both the cases.
When I assigned the night cycle control ?Cycle On Any? to both the cases,
the consumption of fans in the proposed model increased by 2.5 lakh units
whereas in the baseline case, it was increased by 10000 units only.

I have created the customized hourly report for both the cases and it has
been observed that whenever the ?Current hour zone thermostat setting? has
-999 in that case, the fan is not in operation.

This is the case in the baseline model where most of the time in unoccupied
hours, the current hour zone thermostat setting is -999 whereas in the
proposed model, the current hour zone thermostat setting is 82 which keeps
the fan in operation.

Due to this the consumption of proposed fan energy consumption is more
compared to the baseline model.

Can anyone help me how to keep current hour zone thermostat setting in both
the cases same to have the fan power consumption to be increased
proportionate when the night cycle control is assigned in both the cases.
