[Equest-users] Ice rink in sports arena

[Jeff Haberl]

Hello Rohini:



There is a very old study that used a DOE-2 simulation of an Ice Rink at the Rec Center at the University of Colorado...had to do some fiddling with the UA to make up for the limits on the zone temperature...results seemed reasonable.

Subject: [Equest-users] Ice rink in sports arena

Hi All,
I am modelling a sports arena which also has an ice rink (for 6 months of the year). On non-ice events, it is covered with the basketball court material. How do I consider the "coolth" that is getting conducted to the space on both ice and non-ice event times?
Do you think I could put in a -ve number in the miscellanous loads category? How much should the load be? I have not been able to give it much thought other than writing this email. Since there is, as usual, a time constraint, I wanted to see what strategies others might have used.
As usual, appreciate any pointers and thanks in advance.
-Rohini
