[BLDG-SIM] Huge heating demand

[Eben Twombly, PE]

Kevin - Try looking at your supply air temperatures and resets. The heating
load could actually be reheat depending on how you are modeling the supply
air temperature control. A review of the SS-L for that system will give you
an idea of the amount of simultaneous heating and cooling that is occurring.

Subject: [BLDG-SIM] Huge heating demand

 

Hi All,

 

I'm running a 210 ft2 room in eQuest and have assigned generic fabric spec
and a fan coil system with baseboard heating and the location is London. One
of the facades is glazing. When looking at the demand summary the heating
demand is massive relative to all other energy demands (4 times greater than
cooling demand in Summer!). Could anyone suggest what I might be doing
wrong? I've looked at air flow rates, u-values, glazing and nothing seems to
reduce it to what may be expected.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Kevin Burke
