Ying,

Below are a few links that demonstrate how to approach an analysis of a
DSF in eQuest.  Although these resources are not too detailed, they
provide a good place to start. I will also be investigating a DSF
through an energy model in eQuest and through CFD simulations in Airpak.
If anyone has developed techniques for modeling the benefits of a DSF in
eQuest that would be extremely helpful.

Hi all,
We'll model a highrise office building with double skin glass facades.
Any suggestions or experience would you share about modeling it?

Many thanks!

Ying
