[Equest-users] Daily DHW Demand

And one clarification for the thread, the eQUEST program is modeling DHW as described to the program, if you are in the wizard then the wizard will help determine a DHW load from occupancy type and quantity of occupants and library of schedules.

A model made without the wizard would have a specified DHW.

Just want to say that the DHW results would be sensitive to the modelers assumptions, they aren’t “modeled” in a way other than what is given as in input to the program, so verifying the inputs is important if the DHW outputs are important.

I am sure there is an hourly parameter that can be printed out for hot water load. But it would probably be in BtuH, no gallons. I believe you would need a spreadsheet to extract the daily peak as well. I have never tried it, but this rather fits eQuest/DOE2 logic.

Hello,

Is there a way to get the domestic hot water daily demand in eQUEST? the demand should be in gallons per hour
