<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">As someone who has advocated for and used the eQ_WthProc a few times to good effect, I’ll also add that this particular weather visualization and format conversion toolset
is IMHO superseded by another free option, ELEMENTS: <a href="http://bigladdersoftware.com/projects/elements/">
http://bigladdersoftware.com/projects/elements/</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">These two options mirror each other in functionality, but ELEMENTS is a relative breeze to install/execute, and offers a deeper/broader set of immediate visualization options
for QC. I think the DOEWth processor also hosted at <a href="http://doe2.com/index_Wth.html">
http://doe2.com/index_Wth.html</a> has additional conversion functionalities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">I would use none of the above tools however to visualize something I already have loaded into an eQUEST model. Good advice = to use the GLOBAL custom hourly reporting variables
to pull whatever set of weather file conditions you want to see and punch that out in a simulation. Combining that with other custom hourly outputs allows you to quickly scatterplot exterior conditions vs. useful metrics like specific fan/system/plant equipment
operations/outputs to have your eQuest model tell you stories you won’t find in the default interface.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
