color:#1F497D'>I think there’s a bug in v3.63b which restricts DDW Screen
21, at least for the gas side, to process loads. eQUEST defines process
loads as internal thermal loads which do not contribute to utility loads, hence
your observation. Look at the top of the Load column on Screen 21 and you’ll
see a drop-down menu that is set to “Process Load”. I say
there’s a bug because at one point you could change this menu to “Gas”
and it would be a thermal and utility load as you desire. However, it now
appears that Process Load is the only option.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Interface and change the load type from “process” to “gas”.

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I'm
trying to add a process load which consumes natural gas in eQUEST. I'm
doing it through the Design Development wizard. I have enabled process
loads by clicking the Process Loads box on page 15 (non-HVAC enduses to model)
of the shell editor. That enables page 21 (process loads and profiles).
In this, I can specify electric loads without a problem. I just add
in the watts per square foot and the electricity consumption goes up.
Perfect. The trouble is the thermal loads, which are to the right
of the electrical loads. First I just tried entering 100 Btuh per square
foot but left sensible fraction as zero. Then I ran the model and there
was no change. Adding 100 Btuh per square foot has no effect on the
natural gas consumption in the model. If I try the same thing but
increase the sensible fraction it will decrease the energy use in the model
because it's assuming we get free heating from our process load, which is the
opposite of what I want because it's assuming that process energy just
magically appears in the building. For some reason, adding a process load
of X Btuh has no effect on the energy consumption. How do I properly add
this load?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
