[Equest-users] Handling "taller" spaces

[Sheila]

Hi Charles, 

 

So far you are on the right track.  However, you have to manually add
the exposed exterior walls above the adjacent low roof in the detailed
edit mode.  

 

Good luck!  Have a nice weekend.

Subject: [Equest-users] Handling "taller" spaces

 

What is the best way to handle a "taller" space like a Gymnasium?

I have done it by making the overall building a certain height (14 ft,
say), then making the taller space into a separate zone and giving it a
taller conditioned height.

This makes sense to me, but when I see the 3-D geometry of the building
it shows an opening in the walls between the top of the overall building
and the top of the gym.

Is eQuest still modeling it correctly?

Any pointers or example files? 

 

Thanks,

 

Charles Welch

	When I am creating a wall and choose "Layer-by-Layer
Construction" as my input and specify a resistance, my runs come up with
the following error:

	 

	WALL has no heat capacuty. U_VALUE used

	 

	Any ideas where I am going wrong here?

	 

	Thanks,
