[Equest-users] HVAC description - HVAC Summary file

[Bishop, Bill via Equest-users]

Hi Fakeha,
The HVAC Summary file may have what you are looking for. See my previous post, inserted below, if this file is not currently generated by your eQUEST installation.
Regards,
~Bill

eQUEST can generate a handy HVAC Summary file (.csv) automatically when you simulate. You have to open the “eQUEST.INI” file and insert the line, “StoreResults_HVAC_Summary=1” as shown in the screen shot below. The eQUEST.INI file is in the eQUEST Data directory, in both 3.65 and 3.64, which can be found in Tools -> View File Locations -> View eQUEST Data Directory. Once you modify, and save the eQUEST.INI file, there will be a “YOUR_PROJECT_NAME – HVAC Summary.csv” file in the project folder after you open and simulate your project. I mostly use the Air-Side System Summaries portion of the file to help with automating fan power and EIR calculations for Baseline models.

Subject: [Equest-users] HVAC description

Hi,

I want to know how to get a concise summary of the HVAC equipment in my building. For example, system 1 supports 3 different spaces, the SIM file shows the capacity/flow rates  individually for the three spaces. I want the overall system 1 capacity so that I can say that system 1 has lets say 5 ton AC.

Regards
