\paragraph{Field Cooling Design Capacity Method}\label{field-cooling-design-capacity-method}

Enter the method used to determine the cooling design capacity for scalable sizing. Input allowed is either \emph{None}, \emph{CoolingDesignCapacity}, \emph{CapacityPerFloorArea}, and \emph{FractionOfAutosizedCoolingCapacity}. None is used when a cooling coil is not included in the Zone HVAC equipment or this field may be left blank. If this input field is left blank, then the design cooling capacity is set to zero. \emph{CoolingDesignCapacity} means user specifies the magnitude of cooling capacity or the program calculates the design cooling capacity if autosize is specified. \emph{CapacityPerFloorArea} means the program calculates the design cooling capacity from user specified cooling capacity per floor area and floor area of the zone served by the HVAC unit. \emph{FractionOfAutosizedCoolingCapacity} means the program calculates the design cooling capacity from user specified fraction and the auto-sized design cooling capacity. The default method is \emph{CoolingDesignCapacity}.
