eQUEST(ion)The easiest way to do an adiabatic exterior wall is not to do it
at all. Though it at first seems counter intuitive, eQUEST/DOE-2.2 will not
have any heat transfer except across a surface that is defined. Unless you
need interior reflectance for daylighting or wall weight for heat transfer
coefficients, just delete the wall.

Samuel,
I think you can set the material of the wall to have a very high R-value.
I'm not sure you can make it completely adiabatic though. One possibility
(though I have not examined it too closely, could be to model it as an
interior wall, and reference the parent space os being adjacent to it. I
have not tried this method yet, and dont know if it will give you errors.

Dear Bldg-sim users,
1. Is it possible to model adiabatic exterior walls? If not, can we turn
exterior walls into interior walls, and then to adiabatic walls?. I`m always
talking about eQUEST. The fact is that I need some exterior walls not to
have heat conduction and I can't come up with a solution that works.
2. I'm new in building simulation, and I'm beguining to understand how
hard is to develop this kind of programs. With all the public institutions
support (and funding), at least in Europe, can we expect a further and
faster development in next few years? What is the situation in the U.S.A.?
In my opinion the demand of this simulation programs and its developers it's
unstoppable.
Thanks,
Feliz Navidad
