[Bldg-sim] eQuest tutorial

[Louis-Philippe Allard]

Hi!   I’m fairly new to eQuest (and building energy too) and I’ve been using
eQuest for a short period of time now, and I’m pretty

decent in using it.  However, I have no means to verify my simulation
results to find out if my modeling assumptions, and the way I use eQuest

are correct.  I mainly use eQuest t find out HVAC cooling requirements for
specific projects, for example, a friend of mine recently bought a house

and consider to install a HVAC system.  I verified the proper tonnage (or
BTU/Hr) and came with a pretty good answer, but unless he buy the HVAC

unit and install it, there is no real way to find out if my results are
correct.  Does anybody have a example project with results that I can trust
??

Also maybe a tutorial with complete exercises and answers?

 

Thanks!!

 

Thank you and have a nice day! :)
