There is an IWEC2 weather file for Ho Chi Minh City, as well as 18
other locations in Vietnam (see attached JPG taken from my Web
site).<br>
<br>
The entire set of IWEC2 weather files for 3,012 international
locations, i.e., excluding the US and Canada, is available on a
DVD from ASHRAE for $229 (see <a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="http://www.techstreet.com/cgi-bin/detail?product_id=1823067">www.techstreet.com/cgi-bin/detail?product_id=1823067</a>
for details).<br>
<br>
Inidividual IWEC2 files are now also available from my company,
White Box Technologies, for $35, payable through PayPal. Please
contact me for details.<br>
<br>
BTW, I changed the subject line to reflect better the content of
your post. I don't look at all the posts on the bulletin board,
but will generally look at the ones having to do with weather
data, which is why I didn't see your question until now.<br>

don’t think this prevents you from taking credit for
natural ventilation. It doesn’t say you must
provide fans, pumps, diffusers, etc. You CAN heat
and cool with an open window after all – although
cooling is the far more common application of
natural ventilation.

you would need is a way to model space temperature
and control the windows (plus any other devices to
mechanically condition the space when conditions
weren’t favourable for natural ventilation) to
maintain the comfort range. There are tools that
allow you to control windows and HVAC systems in
this manner – based on space temperature, CO2 level,
humidity, etc. So assuming your space type and
climate are good fits for this strategy – you can
apply the appropriate software and control
“sequences” to model a system in accordance with
Appendix G – and account for wind speed, wind
direction, temperatures, moisture, etc. in a fully
dynamic fashion.</span></p>

using that addendum, you model no cooling at all

that will accomplish something similar. If you
were going to accurately demonstrate what you’re

how much energy your baseline system would use

ventilation is doing in the proposed model.
Maybe you could figure out the space temperature
you can achieve for each hour that you’re using
natural ventilation for free cooling. Then, you
could set up a space setpoint schedule in your
baseline that would match those temperatures.
The mechanical cooling system in your baseline
model would cool to those same temperatures.
Does that sound crazy? </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hello
all,<br>
<br>
I'm working on an 150,000 sf indoor
practice facility with 90 ft ceilings.
Does anyone have any
suggestions/tips/heads-up comments
that would be useful in starting this
model?<br>
Specifically, I'm wondering if I'll
run into issues related to
stratification and need to create
'sub-zones' so eQuest better
represents the proposed distribution
system.<br>
<br>
Thank you for your time and combined
insight,<br>
