Jan 1, 2025January 2025 wrap-up for NREL/ComStock: Delivered high-impact features and fixes that improve calculation accuracy, expand HVAC modeling capabilities, and strengthen code quality. Implemented a 100x scaling toggle for pct_svgs calculations with targeted plotting adjustments and a safe revert path to preserve prior behavior when needed. Integrated HPRtu resources by creating a resource file, linking it in measure.rb, revising the resource structure, and connecting the roof measure to HPRtu. Rolled out an HPRtu upsizing logic fix to ensure correct sizing behavior. Refactored window measures, added rubocop cleanups, and expanded unit tests to improve reliability and maintainability. Advanced window/roof interactions with a new window argument and refined initial/final conditions handling, alongside chiller/DOAS workflow improvements (initial chiller draft, DOAS osm creation, pump spec extraction fix, and variable-speed pump control)."
