[Equest-users] windows on plenum walls

[Mehta, Gaurav]

When in the wizard you select or by default:


-       System by floor : it results in a single plenum for entire floor


-       System per zone: it results in multiple plenums per zone.

Subject: Re: [Equest-users] windows on plenum walls

So, I figured out where my plenum windows were going...Because eQuest set up a single plenum for my entire floor plan, as opposed to multilple plenum spaces for each Zoned space that I have.

My new question that I haven't been able to figure out is this:

When (or how to determine when) eQuest will create a single plenum for the entire floor plan, and when does it create a single plenum space for each space zoned in my floor plan?

Sometimes I'll set up a model and it will do one approach and then sometimes I'll set up a model and it will create a single space plenum??

Any hints anyone can give me are appreciated.

thanks,
Pasha

Hi All,

I've always been able to do this before, but its not letting me do it today on a model I am working on...

I'm am trying to place some windows on the plenum walls.  In real life these are actually a spandrel panel.  I'm in the custom window placement and when I place the window on the plenum wall it shows up in the custom window screen, but when I go to check my 3D view, the window on the plenum wall is not displayed.

Has anyone had this problem before?   I've always been able to place windows there before (I specifically remember being able to do it in the window wizard for 3.63b version.   I know I can verify thier existance when I move to DDedit, but I'm just trying to be more efficient using my wizard tools first.

thanks,
pkg
