<P><FONT SIZE=2>Dear all,<BR>
<BR>
I would appreciate it if someone helps me. I keep on postponing the deadline of my equest project! Here's the final problem.<BR>
<BR>
My project is a school in Beirut, Lebanon. I did the baseline and the proposed cases. All results made sense except for the unmet hours of the baseline (61.3%) and Ventilation consumption that is 6 times more than the proposed. The proposed case unmet loads are (3.5%) which is very good.<BR>
<BR>
Is there a chance that the high unmet hours of the baseline are causing the ventilation fans to be that high (The HVAC is running for a greater period of time in order to fulfill that load but can not meet it 61.3% of the times) ?<BR>
<BR>
I have checked the fan schedules for both the baseline and the proposed scenarios, the design set points, the supply flow rates, and every input I suspect to cause this difference. Note that both scenarios operate a VAV w/ reheat system.<BR>
<BR>
I am hereby attaching both scenarios along with the weather file. Please ignore the 200 warnings or so, I have no time to fix them!<BR>
<BR>
If any person can figure out what's wrong, I'll be grateful for the rest of my life and thank this person who made my first project at my new job a successful one :)! I'd appreciate it if someone takes a look at the files today if possible.<BR>
<BR>
Best regards and Many Thanks,<BR>
Omar<BR>
