style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I was wondering if anyone has any
experience modeling Indirect-fired water heaters in eQuest.  I am trying
to model a small apartment complex that has their boiler feeding the domestic
hot water loop through several of these heaters that are essentially just heat
exchangers supplying DHW to a storage tank.  I can’t seem to find
much information on this type of arrangement.  I could just assign the DHW
load to the HW loop and define the pumps correctly, but that would not take
into account the storage or correct supply temperature.  It doesn’t
appear to be possible to connect the HW and DHW loops directly either. </span></font></p>
