Hi,

Which output variable to look for finding the mass flow rate of PTAC supply
fan, if we autosize the supply air flow rate.

Thanks,

Dear Sachin,

Try these:

In the IDF:

Output:Variable, Name_dischargeNode, System Node Volume Flow Rate Standard
Density, Timestep;

In an RVI file:

Name_dischargeNode, System Node Volume Flow Rate Standard Density

In both cases "Name_dischargeNode" is the name that you are using for the
PTAC air outlet node.
