<p class=MsoNormal>Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>First and foremost, happy Cinco de Mayo! I have a question
about how eQUEST imports WINDOW5 files and I am hoping the group can provide
some guidance:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal> Is there a way for eQUEST to import the frame data
from a WINDOW5 report, or does the user need to separately change the frame
conductance?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I imported two WINDOW5 files (same glass, different frame
conductance) into eQUEST fine and set up a parametric run (component type:
window; category: basic specs; keyword: glass type; Value: ‘<i>imported
W5 file’</i>). The problem is that the resulting energy consumption was
the same.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve attached the two WINDOW5 files and a very
simplified eQUEST model that shows how I set up my parametric runs. Regarding
the W5 files: on line 9 it gives the frame conductance in metric units. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks in advance for your help!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Kind regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
