<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Hi Everyone,</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I am confused as to what you are supposed to model and what you aren’t for exterior lighting. The building I am working on has a very shallow parking lot surrounding
it, so the sidewalk lights also cover the parking spaces. So for my baseline do I still include sidewalk lighting and parking lot lighting? I guess my general question is: if the proposed model won’t have a type of lighting (my building does have a canopy,
but no lighting will be installed on it) do I still model it in the baseline? Technically you are saving energy by installing fewer lights. From what I’ve read, it seems youre not supposed to model nontradable surfaces (building facades) in the baseline if
the proposed doesn’t have it. Thanks for the help.</span></font></p>

that you have two buildings in one model. Provided you continue to treat each
building separately, both in building your baseline and in documentation, I don’t
see any base reason why a reviewer would reject the models.</span></p>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff">
if it is on your site you're supposed to model it in both the baseline
and proposed but don't make up lighting just to put it in the model
(baseline or proposed). no lights = none modeled. the breakout
between tradable and nontradable lighting is shown on the ssc8 template
the electrical engineer/lighting designer fills out if that point is
pursued. if ssc8 is not pursued, or it is a leed 3 project, the same
data is part of the lighting/electrical checklist and can be pulled
from there.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I am confused as to what
you are supposed to model and what you aren’t for exterior lighting.
The building I am working on has a very shallow parking lot surrounding
it, so the sidewalk lights also cover the parking spaces. So for my
baseline do I still include sidewalk lighting and parking lot lighting?
I guess my general question is: if the proposed model won’t have a type
of lighting (my building does have a canopy, but no lighting will be
installed on it) do I still model it in the baseline? Technically you
are saving energy by installing fewer lights. From what I’ve read, it
seems youre not supposed to model nontradable surfaces (building
facades) in the baseline if the proposed doesn’t have it. Thanks for
the help.</span></font></p>

Nick, I have created both building in one single model to take
benefit of shading of building also as one single leed project.<br>
I am still not able to decide while choosing baseline building;
number of floors should be sum of all floor in project or maximum
number of floor of building.<br>

So if you are using a model to demonstrate compliance with 90.1, you need a model of each building separately.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So for LEED 2009, can the EAp2 10% savings requirement be met in aggregate or does it have to be met on each building independently?</p><p class="MsoNormal">Surely someone has answered that somewhere. Look in the big book. </p>

</div></div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">I have yet to try what you are doing but you would need to treat each building separately. The number of floors in the building will determine your baseline building as Nick pointed out. Your method to deliver conditioned air to each zone in each building is going to be separate even though you may use a plant to provide for example, hot and cold water to both buildings. I haven't looked ahead to see if you are going to run into a system type conflict between the 2 buildings but if you do just use common sense and determine what is the best way to go to maximize energy efficiency. None of the "rules" are written in stone. They are bendable if you have a good argument and can back it up with hard data which eQuest will give you.<br>

Subject: [Equest-users] Second try - how many DX curves to customize?<br><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> </div><div>Thanks</div><div>-Rohini</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I know I’ve been hounding everyone with questions this week, but I think I’m getting really close to figuring this out. I have implemented a bunch of schedules
for OA, economizing, etc. I think they might be conflicting with eachother somehow, because when I produce an hourly report it says heating and cooling are on 24/7, even when the fan isnt on. Also in the report I noticed at random times that there is no load
to the coil at all during occupied hours, so the fan shuts off but the heating and cooling stay on. Anyone ever had this problem? I have attached pd2 and inp files. Thanks for the help!</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="color: navy; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I have received the following request for

<p class="MsoNormal"><u><font size="1" face="Verdana"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8.5pt;">Please attach a plant entered values report to verify that
modeling conforms to Appendix G.</span></font></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" size="2" face="Arial"><span style="color: navy; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Any idea what a “plant entered
values report” is? I am assuming it is a series of screen shots showing
inputs or maybe a PV-A report but want to be sure. I must be missing the obvious
(again).</span></font></p>
