john,

I would just re-size the autocad floor plans so that they are in IP units. Then you should be able to work in eQuest. You shouldn't have any problems.

Yes, as I stated below.  If you really need DOE-2.2 then there is no metric interface as yet.




Gentlemen (and Ladies):
 
Is this not a front end for DOE-2.1E, not DOE-2.2 (eQuest front end)?

Equest may not be very helpful here.  You can always use EE4 - a simple interface to DOE2.1e that allows full input in metric and converts to imperial for running the model.  I find that EE4 will give just as accurate an answer a equest for over 90% of the building simulation problems I face.  Get it at:


http://canmetenergy-canmetenergie.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca/eng/software_tools/ee4.html 


Note that EE4 generates the Budget Case for the MNECB but not for ASHRAE 90.1.  As with equest, you will have to create your own Budget case.

I have a job that is designed entirely in metric, including the CAD files. Can I do the entire model in metric?
