<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a fairly complete DOE-2 model for a
soon-to-be completed US-China demonstration energy-efficient office
building in Beijing that I've used since 2000 to track the evolution of the
design and evaluate proposed energy-efficiency
improvements. What I need to do now is to do an ASHRAE 90.1
simulation to document how much the demo building exceeds ASHRAE 90.1 for LEED
certification. I first thought of keyboarding in the occupancy, internal
loads, lighting and equipment loads, etc. from the ASHRAE standards, but then
thought that someone must have done that already. Furthermore, I was worried
about getting some of the input parameters wrong. Does anyone know
of any ready-to-use DOE-2 input fragments for ASHRAE 90.1 calculations that
are publicly available ? </FONT></DIV>
