[Equest-users] App G model VAV w unmet loads in heating

[R B]

I looked at your file. When I get these types of unmet errors, the first
thing I do is set the max flow for heating (under the fan flow parameters)
to 1 or whatever ratio is allowed - I think the eQuest default is 0.5,
which probably is too less for cold climates. If this does not help, I
normally look at the min flow (reducing it if possible helps). Other is to
look at the zone design cfm - usually reducing it helps - but reducing it
too much results in cooling hours unmet. For LEED I try to get each zone
unmet below 50 -so start with the highest unmet zone. Sometimes I end up
with a combination of all the above.
Hope this helps.
