[Equest-users] % LOAD ATTRIBUTED TO OA DELIVERY

Good point, David. The system report adds more than just ventilation load to the space load.

I'm not sure if that will exactly give the ventilation loads - the "L" reports are the building space loads, but the "S" reports will include other system effects such as fan heat, reheat, heat gain to the return air, so that the difference might not exactly be a ventilation load, and might be pretty far from an OA-only load.

If there is a preheat coil, you can set up a report to trend that coil's load if you are after the heating loads. You could trend the cooling coil load as well, but this is a function of economizer operation and outside air temperature as well.

Mark,

Look at the differences between values in reports LS-D and SS-D. SS-D includes ventilation. LS-D does not. (The first letter "S" stands for "system." "L" is for "load," the load in the space.)

Hi Mark,

You can use hourly reports to pull out the outside air volume (variable PO) plus the supply and return volumes and temperatures. Then off to a spreadsheet.

Or, if you're feeling ambitious, you could write an input function (see Topics).

Thanks Bill, nice tip.  Any way of parsing it out without running two simulations?

Tx!
Mark.

One way would be to create a MIN-AIR-SCH with all hourly values set to 0 (or 0.001 to activate economizer), apply it to all SYSTEMs and use the difference in the outputs.

Hi there,

Is there a way to accurately parse out from the eQUEST output file the percentage of the cooling and heating load that is attributed to OA delivery?   Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Mark Hallman.
