[Equest-users] Modeling Overhead Radiant Heating

[Bishop, Bill]

Dennis,
 
You can also try modeling gas fired radiant heaters as baseboards with
BASEBOARD-SOURCE "furnace". The gas use will be calculated using the
FURNACE-HIR at the system level (at least it looks that way from a
parametric run that I did). This becomes a problem if you are also
modeling furnace heating for the system HEAT-SOURCE and it has a
different efficiency, since you can only enter one furnace HIR per
system.
 
Regards,
Bill

Closest thing I can think of is Floor Panel Heating..

eQUEST users,
 
Is it possible to simulate a natural gas fired overhead radiant heating
system, similar to that found in an industrial building. If so, what was
the input parameters used?
 
Thanks,
