Here is a list of software available from NRC in Canada. EE4 is
similar to eQuest but not as nice a front end on it, same DOE2 engine.
The 4th column has GS2000 which will size ground energy systems. All
software is free to use.<br>

working on a lab project that will have a 100% outside air control
strategy,
and therefore significant cooling and reheat loads. We'll be using
pretty
standard chillers to provide chilled water, and rejecting the heat to a
common
ground loop. For heating, we'll be using water to water heat pumps to
remove heat from the common ground loop and put it into the heating
water loop
(for pre- and re-heat). And the third component will be a ground loop
heat exchanger (vertical wells) to act as the heat sink/source for the
heating
and cooling extremes.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

question really is this: Can eQuest model a water to water heat

Loop-to-Loop heat pump, but it doesn't give me any .inp commands or
variables,
so I'm a little scared to just throw in a loop to loop heat pump. In
addition to my fears, I don't see a "heat pump" heading under which
to put it. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
