[Bldg-sim] Title-24 modeling w/ eQUEST

[John Aulbach]

Peter:

What is the intent of your using an energy modeling
program? Title-24 only? Nationwide (or world wide)
energy analysis? Design loads?

Time and space does not allow all the implications
using either program tha should be understood.
EnergyPro is, in a nutshell, a California Title-24
compliance tool using DOE-2.1E, the last version
blessed by the Us Department of Energy. The front end
is designed for Title-24 inputs, with the Title-24
schedules and allowances.

If you want to do anything else, you can use the
"behind the screen" DOS (??) version of DOE-2.1E.

With eQuest, you can run on three levels of intricacy
and be running an advance to the DOE family, namily
DOE-2.2.

But there is NO WAY in God's earth you can run EITHER
of these programs (or TRACE or HAP) without some
TRAINING. Just because you can fly a cessna does not
mean you are ready for B-747 flying.

Where are you on the Planet? I am SURE there are some
people that can give this training, to help you begin
your journey. Plus this forum.

But it WOULD be nice if EnergyDesign Resources would
fund a hot line for eQuest questions. They could make
a MINT !!

Now back to work..on about 3 eQuest models in various
stages of progress.

Good hunting, Sir..
