RVI problem - nachogo27 - 02-25-2016
Hello colleagues,
first, sorry for crossposting because I wrote in advance in the EnergyPlus group but after more testing time I think the problem is in Energyplus.
I'm performing a simulation and I have a lot of output variables in my idf.
So I want to select some of them and create a csv file using the rvi file.
The problem is that the csv file obtained only have the first 3 of the 9 variables I listed in the rvi file.
This is the code of the rvi file:
Code:
eplusout.eso
eplusout.csv
DistrictHeating
DistrictCooling
ElectricityNet
Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Heating Energy
Zone Ideal Loads Zone Total Heating Energy
Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Total Heating Energy
Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Cooling Energy
Zone Ideal Loads Zone Total Cooling Energy
Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Total Cooling Energy
0And these are the variables on the idf file:
Code:
Output:Meter,DistrictHeating:Facility,Annual;
Output:Meter,DistrictCooling:Facility,Annual;
Output:Meter,ElectricityNet:Facility,Annual;
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Heating Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Supply Air Total Cooling Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Zone Total Heating Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Zone Total Cooling Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Total Heating Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]
Output:Variable,*,Zone Ideal Loads Outdoor Air Total Cooling Energy,Monthly; !- HVAC Sum [J]All the data from the outputs are included in the eso file.
Could someone give me a hint what I'm doing wrong?
I try in other file without parametric studies and the same variables and the csv have all the variables. Could it be something related to blank spaces for the variables that are not listed in the csv?
Thanks in advance.

Since v1.6, it only extracts annual results unless you specify otherwise explicitly in the RVX. It has been explained in the entry here: http://jeplus.org/mybb/showthread.php?tid=410.
The advantage of this approach is that you can have all the report variables in the same RVI, and then reference them in separate entries in the RVX. jEPlus will then split variables of different report frequency into different CSV files. An example RVX is provided below. You can copy the contents to my.rvx, save it in your project folder, and then select it in your project...
{
"rvis" : [
{
"fileName" : "1529CO Ed Principal Macro v001v 160224 IGP.rvi",
"tableName" : "AnnualMeters",
"frequency" : "Annual",
"usedInCalc" : true
},
{
"fileName" : "1529CO Ed Principal Macro v001v 160224 IGP.rvi",
"tableName" : "MonthlyMeters",
"frequency" : "Monthly",
"usedInCalc" : true
}
]
