color=#0000ff size=2>On the "Project & Site" tab, under "Simulation
Options" where it says "Entire Year" you can set the start and end
dates of your simulation. The default is Jan 1 to Dec 31. If you are
going to simulate less than a 12 month period I suggest you also specify heating
and cooling design days for equipment sizing. If you don't use design
days I believe equest will autosize based on the 3-4 day simulation period you
specify.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Simulation<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hello Everyone,<BR><BR>I recently constructed my building in eQuest
and with it, one of the things I would like to do is figure out how much energy
is used when abiding by the criteria of LEED EQ credit 3.2. 14,000 cubic
feet of outside air must be provided while maintaining the building at 60
degrees F and RH of no higher than 60%. The systems would be on for 3-4
days and I was thinking of simulating it during the spring sometime. Does
anyone have any ideas to go about this? Thank you for your help.<BR
