[Equest-users] Sim file questions

[Nicholas Caton]

First:  Jeff, I would have never guessed that in a million years!  I
thought whoever designed the format had a very sleek aesthetic going on…



So Second:  I think Vik is actually wondering where the column headers have
gone to… Here’s a report from a 3.64 dummy model:



This is just a shot in the dark, but have you tried opening the same SIM
file using the 3.64 SIM viewer or a text editor?  That might establish
whether there’s just something bonkers with the 3.65 SIM viewer in your
case.  You can find (and create a shortcut to) the SIM viewers
(D2SimViewer.exe) in the same installation directory as your eQuest
executable.

FYI:



The " - - - "s in DOE-2 files were put there so one  could count the space
numbers on a 132 character line printer. These are less than useful when
looking at the file electronically.

I can answer the 2nd question:



Select the parametric component “Titles”, select the keyword e.g. LINE-3
and enter the value **ASHRAE 90.1 Ref Run**



It is important to put the title between asterisks.



As to the 1st question, I have not noticed that before.

So I have a couple of questions regarding the images here:

*SIM File*

*INP File*



1.       I notice that sometimes in my SIM file (version 3.65) I am missing
the titles in the BEPS, BEPU and some other reports for end use breakdowns
(area highlighted in yellow)

2.       Also – Area highlighted in cyan – I want to know how I can change
the title of the sim file PARAMETRICALLY. I am aware of how to do it in the
inp file (highlighted above), but I am running a bunch of parametric
simulations and would love to know how to do this as a parametric command.
I’m hoping this is possible.



Thanks in advance!
