[Equest-users] Another Steam for DHW question

[Paul Brooks]

Are you talking about the Source to Site Efficiency input?  
I thought that would not effect what goes on in the building, but was used for 
some othr calculations?

You can set the equipment efficiency of the meter. I think what I’m doing 
(because I have the same problem) is setting this efficiency to the efficiency 
of the heat exchanger and any distribution losses. I can’t think of what else to 
do.

I decided to try connecting a steam meter to my DHW loop and delete the water 
heater.  eQuest appears to use the meter to calculate the cst of the steam to 
produce hot water.  Thoughts on how valid this is.
 
Iamstill trying to figure out how to account for lossses through the steam to 
water heat exchanger.  Any ideas would be appreciated!
