<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal>I am modeling a dormitory for EAc1 in version 3.60. I’ve
calculated the peak DHW load by using the flow rate of all of the fixtures on
the hot water loop (410 gpm). I have a schedule that accounts for the vacant
periods during the breaks and reduced usage in the summer when the building is
partially occupied. When I use the 410 gpm rate as the process flow the energy
consumption for hot water is astronomically high. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>What fact do I need to apply to the calculated flow rate to
get realistic results?<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></P>
