Our apologies - but the DOE-2 documentation that John has echoed here
is old and no longer correct.<br>
There is no way currently to enable your input or output units to be in
Metric using eQUEST.<br>

<p class="MsoBodyText">The program allows input in either
English or metric units. Output reports, both hourly and summary, can
also be in either English or metric units. The default for the input
and output is English units. To specify metric input and output, use
the INPUT-UNITS and OUTPUT-UNITS keywords in the INPUT or
PARAMETRIC-INPUT command:

<div>You input these commands into the .INP file, right at the
beginning Since I believe you input everything in English units, you
would use the OUTPUT-UNITS command to get your metric outputs.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Try getting into the Detailed Interface, saving the file,
then going to the .INP file and making the changes. in that way, I
believe eQuest will not change this option on you.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You WILL however be required to see your outputs in the
.SIM file.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Try it !!</div>
