<DIV><SPAN class=978050414-25082005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>As
far as I know, you cannot model stratification in eQUEST. There is a
workaround with modelling underfloor systems (Dan Nall & Marlin Addison
have done some work in this area - check the link here, or just google their
names)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=978050414-25082005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I am
not sure that this is what you are looking for though. If you are modelling
only stratification, you probably want to use CFD.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=978050414-25082005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I am
not familiar with Energy Plus, so I dont know if it does stratification
modelling, but that might be an option thats cheaper than
cfd.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
