list at 9:07) – I am sure you’ll find creating a few internal walls from
scratch (after the wizards) to be much less time-intensive and simpler than
creating dummy spaces with zero energy consumption but equal temperatures to
avoid heat transfer… If this seems confusing ask for elaboration.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>Are you talking about doing, for example, a retail space with a
store front and it has 2 walls that abut other buildings making them interior?
If that is the case you have to make 2 other blocks of no significant shape
next to the space that you are analyzing as fill in the blank spaces. These are
really place holders for other portions of the building. You will have to
make the items in these spaces use 0 energy by making all their lighting HVAC
occupancy etc. 0. In other words make a schedule that turns on 0 of the
equipment. The 2 spaces that abut the space you are analyzing should be drawing
no energy otherwise they will show up in the analysis. I did this tutorial in
another program.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

running a simulation on just a portion of a building. eQuest sees all
walls of the polygon as exterior walls. In reality some walls are
interior and will not have heat transfer. Is there any way to make eQuest
see those walls as interior walls? I’ve thought of defining those walls
with super insulation and a large air space so heat transfer is
negligible. Anyone tried that?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
