[Equest-users] Baseline Airflow Autosizing

[Matutinovic, Luka]

Reniel,
 
Are you referring to the sizing runs from G3.1.2.2.1?  If so, leave the
design cfm on each air-handler blank (see screenshot below) and eQuest
will size the flows based on the sizing option you've specified (Click
on a system, go the Basics tab, and see "Sizing Option").  
 
If you need to size the baseline equipment capacity as per G3.1.2.2,
then multiply the auto-sized flows from the first step, by 1.25 for
heating and 1.15 for cooling and enter the result as the design cfm.
 
I think you might be able to do the second step directly by specifying a
sizing ratio (see second screenshot), although for whatever reason I
haven't done it this way in the past, so I'd be curious to hear from the
more experience eQuesters what approach they take.
 
Hope the helps,

I've been trying to look on the equest interface where we can set the
airflow to autosize itself as per LEED baseline requirement.
I don't think we have this option here. Have we?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Reniel
