<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I was wondering if any of the list users could advise me on
how to get data out of Trace for use in Steve Kavanaugh’s “Ground
Source Heat Pump System Design” software v5.0. (www.geokiss.com)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I’ve designed a Trace WSHP system which divides a
building into approximately 35 zones. GshpCalc requires that I input heating
and cooling design loads by zone into various “bins” based on time
of day. If you examine the help file at the site listed above (or here if
interested, page 43: http://www.geokiss.com/software/Ver50Inst2-20.pdf) you’ll
understand the data I require for this program.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>My question more generally: I’d like to get data out
of Trace on a particular zone design heating and cooling load at specific times
of the day. One way I see I can do that is to goto the “Calcuate”
tab, “Change Load Parameters” and then change the peak hour to
1-24, run the load simulation, log the data in excel, rinse, repeat for all 24
hours and then sort data in excel. I think that is too much work..hahah.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
