> I'm new to eQUEST and am trying to get up to speed with how eQUEST
> sets up ventilation systems - the attached sketch shows an example
> system that I am trying to set up in eQUEST: 
> 
>  <<Example Ventilation Schematic.pdf>> 
> It shows a recirculation AHU (with a fresh air supply) which supplies
> air to different rooms via fan coil units (FCU), room air conditioning
> units (RACU) and pressurised floor plenums. Do I need to model the
> individual FCUs, RACUs, and discharge units as separate systems or do
> I just set up one AHU and attach the different rooms to it? What I
> don't understand is how eQUEST takes into account different fan
> speeds/sizes for the various room units if I'm assuming they're all
> attached to one AHU?
> 
> Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
