[Bldg-sim] eQUEST - EnergyPlus

[Crawley, Drury]

A comparison of EnergyPlus, eQUEST and 18 other tools is available here:  http://www.eere.energy.gov/buildings/tools_directory/pdfs/contrasting_the_capabilities_of_building_energy_performance_simulation_programs_v1.0.pdf
It is now 2-1/2 years out of date but it shows the major differences.

Subject: [Bldg-sim] eQUEST - EnergyPlus



Hello - I am new to the bldg-sim list and to the world of construction (I´m graduating in June).  I´m trying to decide whether to use eQUEST or EnergyPlus.  Is there a place where I can compare the features and general differences between the 2 programs?

 

By the way, I am working out of Spain and it is important to be able to

- use SI metric system,

- change the input files for materials, building codes, weather, etc.  Most importat, the US building codes do not apply so I will need to use (or

define) those input files.

 

Kind regards

 

Pere
