<div class="moz-cite-prefix">You´re right that we didnt define
server room as a distinct zone. This model is for LEED
precertification and the documentation is in very early stage so
we don´t know positions and sizes of these rooms. Thats why I
thought it would be enough to add expectation of percentage of
floor area to zone description.<br>
<br>
We just need to be sure to get 28% improvement of proposed
building against baseline building.<br>
<br>
I´m sending files from equest so you can look at it. Floor plan is
in file "pokus002.dxf".<br>
<br>
I´m using eQuest 3.65. Thanks for advice.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello,<br>
<br>
I have a question about eQuest modeling - I created a model of
quite simple rectangle Office building, but in results I have
no consumption of electricity for cooling during winter
(november - march) although in area specification I have 6 %
of floor area specified as a Computer server room (data
centre) with 100 % plug load in occupied and unoccupied times.<br>
<br>
The building is in Prague (Czech republic) and from my
experiences based on real dates from existing building there´s
always consumption of cooling energy for data server rooms in
winter in this location.<br>
<br>
Do you know, where the problem can? What parameter could I
insert wrongly?<br>
<br>
Thanks for advices.<br>
