size=2 face=Arial>Rohini, I would suggest that total coil capacity and sensible
capacity and the COP as function of part load are the most important of all.
Once these are known the exit conditions from the coil for given inlet
conditions can be determined. Usually you need either the sensible capacity
(with the total capacity) or the bypass factor to determine the exit conditions.
So I am not sure at this point why eQuest needs information for
both.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

customize?<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Did not get any replies for this - maybe Thursday is my lucky day and
someone has the answer:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There are two performance curves and five curves under capacity curves tab
for DX cooling. I was planning on generating just custom performance curves, but
was wondering if it is necessary to generate custom capacity curves also? If
yes, which of the capacity curves are critical to be customized (total cap vs
temps, sen cap vs temps, bypass factor vs temps, bypass factor vs flow, and
bypass factor vs part load). My thinking is total cap and sensible cap curves
might be useful to customize. Is it easy to get data for the bypass factor
curves?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Appreciate it if anyone who has done custom curves for DX cooling can chime
in.</DIV>

<DIV>Thanks</DIV>
