<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I guess the problem is when
calculating loads you may want to be a little more conservative with you
internal loads and when you are doing energy modeling you want to be more exact
with your assumptions. In addition, my understanding is that internal loads
contribute to space heating in eQuest load calcs. Which something that many
engineers would not feel comfortable with. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Just wondering… Has anyone based their HVAC design on
eQuest results? Typically we us Trane Trace for load calcs and do our energy
models in eQuest. However, this questions was brought up in our office. I just
wanted to see what everyone thought of this matter.<o:p></o:p></p>
