The following changes have been done:
<ul>
<li>
Improved models to comply with Modelica Language Standard. Now all models translate with OpenModelica.
</li>
<li>
Corrected chiller models for situation where condenser is air cooled.
</li>
<li>
Corrected occupancy models for simulations that do not start at time equal to zero.
