High temperatures in winter
I'm a new user of OpenStudio. I would like to know why my temperatures during the winter are so huge? I did schedules for heating from 16 degrees to 20 degrees during the day in office rooms and from 16 to 24 in the bathroom. But from December to April sometimes temperatures are higher than 26 in all the spaces. I didn't do any of the HVAC systems. How can I change it?

Can you provide more details about the mechanical system you are using? It is possible that one zone is controlling air loop supply temperatures for multiple zones, which could cause many, but not all, zones to be higher than target setpoints. You could have excessively high internal loads that the system isn't sizing to meet.
I don't use any of the mechanical systems. I use only Ideal Air Loads
What are your cooling setpoints? If internal loads are too high, you could warm above the heating setpoint. And it won't cool unless there is a cooling setpoint that it crosses. May be worth turning off ideal air loads to see what zone does when un-conditioned.
