[Equest-users] Chiller type and EIR

[John Aulbach]

Sir:

The Gospel according to eQuest:

1) Thou shall not change a SYSTEM in a Parametric Run
2) Thou shall not change an EQUIPMENT-TYPE in a Parametric Run.

HOWEVER, you CAN run an entirely dirrent run (call it Chiller Run or something), 
then you can call in this run as a Parametric Run.

Please attached.

Then you will have the "slingshot" to "smot" the Philistine.

Subject: [Equest-users] Chiller type and EIR

I am having trouble setting up a parametric run to determine the benefits of a 
new chiller. I want to replace an old reciprocating chiller with a centrifugal 
one and I want to change the EIR to the IECC 2009 specification for centrifugal 
chillers. When I change the chiller type, save it, and go back, the data 
modifications box is blank. If i try to make both of these data modifications in 
the parametric component, eQuest either crashes, won't let me put in both 
options, or erases my changes when I go back to check them. Any idea why I can't 
seem to change the chiller type and EIR?

Thanks,
Ben
