<P>Dear All,</P>
<P>I am trying to simulate a 60000 sq ft office building located in Houston, in eQuest that has packaged air cooled DX units and electric heat. It is a 3 story building and there is one unit on each floor. The proposed has been simulated with a <B>system per floor.</P></B>
<P>The baseline equipment is packaged rooftop heat pump. It has been simulated with a <B>system per zone</B>.The percent of hours not meeting the throttling range are 14.9%.</P>
<P>When adding more core zones, the % of hrs is in the range of 32%. The core zones are undercooled, and so on adding more core zones and more units for those - the % of hours are increasing, not decreasing.</P>
<P>Please advise.</P>
<P>Thanks,</P>
<P>Ruju.</P>
