[Equest-users] Negative Cooling Load

[Sami, Vikram]

This looks different from a standard eQUEST sim file. A couple of things

*         You might want to post this to the bldg sim list

*         100% hours outside the throttling zone? Something's wrong there.

I, in fact, don't have a .INP and .PD2 because I am not using equest. I am however using a similar software (EE4-Canadian Based) that uses DOE simulation engine. I have attached the doe-2 .sim file for review if that would help.

Thanks,
Ahmed

I'm curious too. The BEPS is not a loads report - its an energy performance report, so the cooling numbers that show up here are really cooling energy numbers.

It would be nice to see the inp file

Hi all,

In the DOE file in the BEPS Report (Building Energy Performance Summary Report) the cooling load is negative. Does anyone know what would that possibly mean?

Regards,
