[Equest-users] ASHRAE 62.1 cfm/person

[Eric O'Neill]

Pravin,

 

I'm attaching a screen capture from a building I modeled (yes, that
system setup was heinous and produced terrible results - it wasn't my
doing) that shows the OA settings based on 62.1 requirements. 

 

Let me know if that doesn't simplify your process.

 

Eric

Hi All,

        This query is related to HVAC Ventilation used in equest. As per
ASHRAE 62.1 Ventilation rates are specified based on per person and per
sqft basis for example if I consider a office area the ventilation rates
would be 5 cfm/person + 0.06 cfm/sqft.

Equest doesnt allow you to enter the ventilation rate based on sqft
basis.

I  am calculating the ventilation rate manully (using per-person +
per-sqft basis) and then dividing it by total occupancy and arriving at
the cfm/person value which is to be entered in Equest.

Is this procedure correct???

Regards,

Pravin Wakode
