<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m new to this group and very new to the eQuest refrigeration modeling, plus new to my job of evaluating someone else’s models. My current project is a supermarket. The baseline is an RTU. The retrofit is an RTU with heat reclamation.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In each case there are 8 “Refrigeration Fixtures” in the zone.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I used Notepad++ to compare the baseline and retrofit input files DEFROST-CAP/LEN was only in the baseline input for each of those “Refrigeration Fixtures”.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Baseline code:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">COIL-CAP/LEN = 1445<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-TYPE = OFF-CYCLE<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">DEFROST-CAP/LEN = 1400</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-EFF = 0.93<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-DT = 10<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-INITIATE = DEMAND<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-TERMINAT = TEMPERATURE<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">DEFROST-DURATION = 59</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> NUM-DEFROSTS/DAY = 3<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> LIQUID-CIRCUIT = "Liquid_MTB +17"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> SUCTION-CIRCUIT = "SuctionCircuit_C4D80D4BE16CA"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Retrofit code:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> COIL-CAP/LEN = 1445<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-TYPE = OFF-CYCLE<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-EFF = 0.93<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-DT = 10<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> DEFROST-INITIATE = DEMAND<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> SUCTION-CIRCUIT = "SuctionCircuit_C4D80D4BE16CA"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It appears that the defrost cycle occurs in the retrofit but has no length defined.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the difference because of the heat reclamation? <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you so much.<o:p></o:p></p>
