[Equest-users] Excessive summer heating

[Singhal, Harshul]

Hi Amy,



The current model (you sent) has 172 unmet load hours coming from zone: "EL5 SSW Perim Zn (G.SSW2)"



I gave a real quick look at model and as per LEED it looks fine to me. DO you mean to decrease these unmet load hours or you already made changes and sent the model here at eQuest group?



I would say check SS-R report and see what zones have unmet load hours & you can increase supply CFM in those particular zones.

Best,

Subject: [Equest-users] Excessive summer heating

I received comments back from the LEED reviewers; they comment that I have excessive summer heating.  Prior to submitting to USGBC, I had already fooled with the throttling range and system cooling control to warmest.  Tweaking those helped with the unmet heating hours I had previously.  Could messing with those 2 items before have caused the excessive summer heating?  Any suggestions to lower the excessive summer heating?  I've attached the inp and pd2 file.  I'm running version 3.64.
Any help is appreciated.  Thanks!
