font-family:Arial'>I am trying to model a Ground loop heat exchanger using
eQUEST. Obviously, I am going wrong somewhere, because the energy use in the
building is going up by almost 20kbtu/sqft/yr as against a variable volume
system, which in reality should actually go down.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

that the vent fan energy and cooling energy go up drastically although heating
energy is reduced to almost nil.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
