[Equest-users] U value temperature dependence in eQUEST

Hi,

Does anyone know if and how eQUEST accounts for the temperature dependence of U values? For instance, some manufacturers specify a summer design condition U value that is different from a winter design condition U value. Ideally I would like to have eQUEST calculate the hourly U value based on the hourly temperature to get accurate skin loads throughout the whole year. If anyone knows how this can be done, please let me know.

Thanks,
Sean
