[Equest-users] Domestic Hot Water

[Fred Betz]

The input for flow rate is under the plant tab. Open the DHW loop, and click on the process tab.

Adjust the flow rate and schedule according to your design.

Be careful with the schedule because you're maintaining that flow rate for the full hour, and the flow rate you enter is per minute.

Good luck,

Fred

Subject: [Equest-users] Domestic Hot Water

I thought this should be simple, but I am trying to figure out how eQuest models DHW.  I cannot seem to find (in detailed mode) either where the hot water use is actually entered, or how it is calculated.  The total gas load for DHW seems high (70% of the total use in the building).   Any suggestions on how to track this down?  Thanks in advance.
