[BLDG-SIM] eQUEST:Recreational Pool Modelling

[Gerald Pde]

I am enquiring if there is a general strategy for
modelling swimming pools preferably using eQUEST , and
if so, are there are specific modelling tricks for
this task. There have been discussion threads for
pools from 2003 but those discussions have not touched
on any general strategy for handling pool modelling.
I have a recreation center of  appx. 40,000sq.ft,
including the pool, and what I am looking for is a
conditioning system comparison between a typical VAV +
chiller + boiler system, and a heat pump system that
uses waste heat from other spaces to heat the pool
itself as well as condition air in the pool hall and
the rest of the building.
The general questions I have in mind are how could one
define a system which could mimic a heated pool, how
would one define or assign latent load added to the
space, and how would one define heat losses from the
pool.
