[Equest-users] HVAC description - HVAC Summary file

[Daric Adair via Equest-users]

Bill;

This is awesome – thanks for sharing!
Are there any other modifications or “hidden’ things which can be enabled? Or better yet – is there a source for learning about these or what other outputs are available?

Thanks,

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.

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
