[bldg-sim] equest: earth pipes

[John Davit]

Hi All,
I am currently trying to model a gym which would draw in air through 
earthpipes that could be used for either passive heating or passive 
cooling depending on space temperatures and ground temperatures. The gym 
would probably need mechanical ventilation to draw out air through the 
pipes. The critical quesiton would be, what is the air temperature coming 
out of the pipes and how much cfm is needed to offset sensible+latent 
people heat gain and lights in the gym.
Is there a way of simulating earth coupled pipes in eQUEST. If not, 
what are the other whole building analysis tools that can simulate earth 
coupled pipes.
Thanks
