[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: [Equest-users] equest and energy plus outputs

[deepika khowal <deepika.khowal@xxxxxxxxx>]

So based on my analysis, there is a difference of about 10% in results of equest and E+. I would believe that because there are certain parameters which are very difficult to match.

this seems reasonable to me.

I am sure EnergyPlus is a fine and well thought out program (consider the sources and fine people involved).  However, since I am in production mode (and don't have time to create a model in two different programs-who pays for THAT), I chose to migrate to eQuest after DOE-2.1 A, B, C, D, and E. There are plenty of resources to ask questions of, the program started out in Windows (didn't need "add ons"), and gives me a 3-D rendering on the building immediately.

 

I dealt with 20 years of "raw" DOE-2, where I didn't know what my building really looked like (until Joe Huang came along with BDL Draw..). So I would need at age (you guess..) to not relearn an entirely new program and stick with what I had learned over the past 25+ years.
