[Bldg-sim] Expert advice on Wall Insulation study in eQuest

[Claire Das Bhaumik]

The results look reasonably close to those expected but that you haven't
reached the far enough down the curve yet to see it stagnating? Either that
or there are some other factors in the model which become more less
significant with reducing U-value?
