this particular error. However, there is a refrigeration version of eQuest
(3.61) I believe, and I’ve used this to successfully model a grocery store.
Perhaps if you’re not able to solve the problem you could give the
refrigeration version a try. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hello<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am modeling a supermarket with a considerable
refrigeration load. I created my model in v 3.63 (due to excessive 3.64
crashes), and have had some problems getting the model to simulate. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>An error that keeps reoccurring states that the zone where
the refrigeration is located must be the first zone defined in its system ie
Zone 1 must be the first defined zone in AHU-1. However, even after I fix this,
the error keeps reoccurring. Saving and re-opening the model has not helped.
I’ve noticed that moving the refrigeration to the zone that is defined last
within the system sometimes fixes this, but not for all systems.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Anyone have any experience with this?<o:p></o:p></p>
