<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Dear users,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I want to confirm if the information I found in the DOE documentation is still up to date for the DOE2 engine in eQuest 3.65.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am looking at the cooling and heating curve-fits of PSZ systems for EIR-FT and CAP-FT. From what I gather, in cooling, the curves are functions of entering wet-bulb temperature and outside dry-bulb temperature. In
heating, the curves are functions of outside dry-bulb temperature and entering dry-bulb temperature. Here are some extracts of DOE documents, where I found which variables are used for the curve-fit equations in cooling and heating. I know some of these
documents are from older versions of the DOE engine, so I am wondering if this info is obsolete or not?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
