The variable is fine. But it's set up only if you have gas equipment in the zone.
It is more than just for gas, here is the entire .err file:
It is very likely that all of these variables have never been created for this input file: 5ZoneAirCooled.idf
At the end it does say:
** Warning ** Processing Monthly Tabular Reports: Variable names not valid for this simulation
** ~~~ ** ...use Output:Diagnostics,DisplayExtraWarnings; to show more details on individual variables.
I'm not sure what else to do, maybe add more details to this last warning. I tripped on it and jumped to the wrong conclusion.
should we change the warnings to be displayed only when Output:Diagnostics,DisplayExtraWarnings
?
seems a bit silly to have so many warnings for something that isn't an issue, and something that the user has no control over. The warning at the end seems sufficient
** Warning ** Processing Monthly Tabular Reports: Variable names not valid for this simulation
** ~~~ ** ...use Output:Diagnostics,DisplayExtraWarnings; to show more details on individual variables.
Ideally you do want these warnings in case you put a wrong variable in an Output:Table:Monthly you defined yourself though.
I'll give a shot at fixing this one.
There are other problems in there...
DisplayExtraWarnings
message if you have simulation control set to "Run Simulation for Sizing Periods" + "Run Simulation for Weather File Run Periods".@jmarrec - the location where the warning is created, it goes through predefined output reports (I didn't save the line of code). I assumed that custom user variables and reports were processed elsewhere.
They are all processed in the same routine (and stored in the same array).
Issue overview
Adding the predefined monthly reports by including:
Generates about 200 new warning messages. An example is shown below
This probably also means that the reports are not showing the results that are expected. Probably the output variables have been renamed and the corresponding predefined monthly reports were not updated.
See OutputReportTabular.cc function CreatePredefinedMonthlyReports()
