[Equest-users] 答复: Problem of design flow rate autosize

[刘宇]

Thanks Keith,

 

I think that would be the reason but the program doesn’t allow me to change
Altitude, it change back to blank after I input value and leave the box.
User-Defined Default Value doesn’t ether (it did work for Latitude and
Longitude input). My location in international -or- User-defined.

Hello, Yu,

 

The difference may be due to eQUEST’S air density correction based on the
elevation of your project location. The auto-calculated value is adjusted
for the altitude. The air flow you enter is assumed to be at sea level
(standard conditions). If this density correction calculation is causing the
difference you see, then changing the elevation to 0 feet should get them to
match.  To change the elevation, in the Detailed Interface click on
“Project & Site” in the upper left, then in the Component Tree on the left
side double-click on “Site Data” (4th one down from the top). The field
for Altitude is near the middle of the Basic Specifications tab.

Hi

 

I’m trying to model baseline system 7 HVAC system using ‘Variable Air
Volume’ system with zone HW reheat. When I leave design supply flow blank
to let equest auto size, I have 60343 cfm supply flow and 320 unmet heat
hour in system summary table. But when I input 60343 cfm in system design
flow box and recalculate, then I have 105 unmet hours, and nothing else
changed in system summary table. Is that a bug of software or there are some
reason I don’t know.
