Openstudio: Sensible Heat Gain Summary vs. Electricity Consumption [closed]
I am currently modelling an office building using VRF heat pumps for both heating and cooling.
What I find very puzzling is that in the "Sensible heat gain summary" the:
HVAC Input sensible air heating = 165,853 kWh
HVAC Input sensible air cooling = 562,794 kWh
However, the "Electricity consumption" table shows:
Heating = 335,025 kWh
Cooling = 197,461 kWh
Given that the COP in both the cooling and heating mode are around 3, the electricity consumption for heating should be less than the input sensible air heating but it is not!!
Does anyone know why this is the case?

@Daniel Mak, you (accidentally?) posted this question twice. Can you please delete one of them?
Where's the other one? Already gone?
