Hello,

My name is Seun Odukomaiya. I am a graduate student at Purdue University
working on the Building Sciences. As part of my research, I am trying to
calibrate an eQuest model to match the energy performance of an actual
building for which i have data. Currently, I am having difficulties with the
electric heating element. The actual building (and thus the model) utilizes
an electric heating element. The energy data from the model, however, is
much lower than that of the actual building. I have tried several things,
but have been unsuccessful in increasing the energy consumption of the
electric heating element in my eQuest model. I need to increase the energy
consumption of the electric heating element in my eQuest model to get it to
match the data from the actual building. Any help in ways to accomplish this
within eQuest would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
