[Equest-users] Fwd: I got 26% OF HOURS OUTSIDE OF THROTTLING RANGE after rotating my model by 5 degrees?

The only difference between the different azimuths is the solar radiation.
I think you should compare the summary loads report (LS-E by space, or 
LS-F for the whole building) for the different orientations and see how 
much the solar heat gains, especially through the windows, change.  If 
you really want to get into it, you can also print out hourly reports 
for the solar heat gains, heating and cooling loads for the ground floor 
zones.  You can also switch weather files and see what happens.  I will 
send you by e-mail a different weather file for Wuhan that I've created.
Good luck.

Joe
