[Equest-users] Simulation with Baseline model, Thanks for Your Advice. I am unable to figure it out.

[tim]

Yes, and my experiment didn't work by the way - must be why no comments were
made.  I thought it was working but alas the GSHP plant equipment button is
greyed after going back into the wizard. so I suppose there is no way to
compare LEED baseline with proposed in one eQuest model?

 

It did "appear" to work.  The geothermal had a higher electric usage and way
lower gas consumption - this made sense to me since the geothermal would
have pumps & more intricate controls and the PSZ would eat up the gas in
winter.

 

Anyway, now I am planning to have 2 model files and use the EEM wizard to
rename the runs appropriately.  I will then have to generate my own
comparison reports if I want them I suppose.  Had to find percent
improvement on my own anyway.  Attached is a simple spreadsheet showing the
comparison.  There may be a template for this, I'm just wandering through
the energy simulation forest for the first time so any thoughts/feedback
would be appreciated.

 

Maybe I need some training.

eQuest uses "Baseline" to refer to your base model, with EEMs in mind. The
word has actually nothing to do with either 90.1 or T24. 

 

For example, if you are doing a LEED model and create two models: one
proposed and one LEED baseline. Both will be called "Baseline" by eQuest.

To eQuest Expert,

 

I have a question to beg your answer. For an equest model, after I input
some data and then run simulation, the report showed "baseline". What does
this "baseline" mean? Is it meaning min requirement by Ashrae 90.1, T24,
based on what I just input data or something else? In other words, how to
run baseline model by using eQuest? 

I appreciate your time very much! Thanks Lot!!!

Best regards,

 

James Le
