[Equest-users] FW: (3) LEED compliance analysis errors - (DBID 190000020000)?

[Claire Naisby]

Chris or anyone else bored on a Sunday –



I have run into the same problem you described below (that I found in the
archives).  How do I return to eQuest 3.65 (build 7154) as you suggested
below? I would like to see if that may solve the problem. My simulation
results from the actual design came out just fine! ?



Or, if anyone has any other guidance or advice, I would greatly appreciate.





I’ve taken a screenshot of the “Rules Evaluation Error List” and have
pasted below:





Many thanks,

Claire Naisby

------------------------------

I have resolved this problem.



The latest version of equest 3.65 (build 7163) gave me errors when
trying to run the compliance analysis and I think it has something to
do with the floor layering - specifically, slabs over crawlspaces or
unconditioned spaces.



That or DBID 190000020000 is missing from the DOE database in the
current version of equest perhaps?



I reverted back to the previous version of equest 3.65 (build 7154)
and ran the compliance analysis on the exact same model.



Everything worked great, 100% compliance analysis with no errors, whatsoever.



Maybe this will help others with the same problem...

I think I have this figured out!



I went back to check that all the applicable spaces are conditioned
(they are).  All my areas with plenums are unconditioned (they are) -
I had read on the usergroup

That some users had issues with this.



Then I went in to the space occupancies in detailed edit.



I remembered reading in DOE2 somewhere that the sum of occupancy type
areas MUST equal the overall area of the SPC (or space).

In other words, "Sum of Occupancy Type Area: xxxx ft2"  must equal the
Area: xxxx ft2 over on the left hand side of the "space properties"
window.



Apparently some of my occupancy square footages are equal to the
VOLUME (ft3) not the area (ft2).....



DOE2 sais if these are not equal it will inevitably give you errors.
This explains it.

Pretty basic newb error and I'm not sure how I missed that!



I'm going to recheck all my inputs and try running the compliance
analysis again.  I'll post back with the results.

I prepared all my compliance inputs in detailed edit and ran my LEED
compliance analysis.



The process completed and gave me three error messages.



Error encountered setting data to LAYERS component (x3)...



'901_NRes_EFlr_Layr' imported from library: BDL Symbol not found (DBID
190000020000) evaluation rule: Fetch NRes Floor layers

'901_Res_EFlr_Layr' imported from library: BDL Symbol not found (DBID
190000020000) evaluation rule: Fetch Res Floor layers

'901_SHtd_EFlr_Layr' imported from library: BDL Symbol not found (DBID
190000020000) evaluation rule: Fetch Semi-heated Floor layers



Has anyone seen this before or know what if I'm missing something?



It definitely has something to do with DBID 190000020000 - which must
be floor related.
