[BLDG-SIM] modeling gas-fired radiant heating

This is an email from Linda Morrison of ambient energy.

Using eQuest, ambient energy is modeling a maintenance bay that has
gas-fired radiant heating, gas-fired make-up air units, direct evaporative
cooling and heat wheel heat recovery.  

I plan on using a System Type of Single Zone with furnace (so I can include
an outside air unit), direct evaporative cooling as a preconditioner, and a
heat wheel heat recovery.  

eQuest Help suggests using a gas fired unit heater to simulate the gas-fired
radiant heating but I can't model this because I cannot add outside air.  

Zone type heating options are furnace, gas fired hydronic, hot water loop?

Suggestions?

Best, 

Linda
