I’ve done this only once, but here’s how I went
about it:
 
You model the chilled beam system as an induction unit (assuming
it s a passive chilled beam). You will need to model it’s OA from a DOAS
system. Since the chilled beam system itself does not use fan energy you will
need to set your kW/cfm at zero. The fan energy gets captured at the air
handler. Now with the lab I was modeling the chilled beam was running on 100%
OA, so this was a valid approach.
 
 If the chilled beam air handler has recirculation air
(return air), this might not be a valid approach.

Wallie,
 
I've never tried this method, but I came across this thread
yesterday when I was perusing the archives for other data...let us know if this
approach is successful for your project.

Does anyone knows how to model chilled beams in e-quest? What system should i
used?

Thank you so much in advance.
