[BLDG-SIM] solar hot water heating

[Dr. Nader Chalfoun]

Dear John:

Thank you for your prompt response.  I have just received Energy-10 v1.8
update and it just added a domestic solar water heater module as well as
a PV calculation module.  I have not used it yet, but currently, in
class, we are simulating commercial buildings for LEED certification
and was hoping to continue using eQUEST.

What is the suggested level of funding from university?

Thank you,

Nader
