<DIV><SPAN class=800343520-27122004>The easiest way to do an adiabatic exterior
wall is not to do it at all. Though it at first seems counter intuitive,
eQUEST/DOE-2.2 will not have any heat transfer except across a surface that is
defined. Unless you need interior reflectance for daylighting or wall
weight for heat transfer coefficients, just delete the wall.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=887035219-27122004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I
think you can set the material of the wall to have a very high R-value. I'm
not sure you can make it completely adiabatic though. One possibility (though
I have not examined it too closely, could be to model it as an interior wall,
and reference the parent space os being adjacent to it. I have not tried this
method yet, and dont know if it will give you errors.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear Bldg-sim users,</FONT><FONT
face="Times New Roman"> </FONT><BR><FONT face="Times New Roman">1. Is it
possible to model adiabatic exterior walls? If not, can we turn exterior
walls into interior walls, and then to adiabatic walls?. I`m always talking
about eQUEST. The fact is that I need some exterior walls not to have heat
conduction and I can't come up with a solution that works.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman">2. I'm new in building simulation, and I'm
beguining to understand how hard is to develop this kind of programs. With
all the public institutions support (and funding), at least in Europe, can
we expect a further and faster development in next few years? What is the
situation in the U.S.A.? In my opinion the demand of this simulation
programs and its developers it's unstoppable.</FONT></P>
