<DIV>eQuest seems to have tank volume and tank R-value. I beileve you could create a tank geometry to establish surface are, then apply your base and your proposed R-values to develop savings for added insulation.<BR><BR>--- On <B>Tue, 2/10/09, Niko Michael Kalinic <I><kalinic@colorado.edu></I></B> wrote:<BR></DIV>

<DIV id=yiv27173736>
<DIV>Has anyone modeled the addition of a DHW tank insulation jacket? Is there a simple way to adjust the UA value for the tank by a certain factor representative of the inuslation jacket R-value without knowing the original R-value of the tank or the area? I am having trouble figuring out what area eQUEST uses in the UA calculation.</DIV>
