DOE2.3 50h

Hello everyone,

I?m excited to see the new version of eQUEST 3.65b7175 which is based on the DOE2.3-50h simulation engine. I noticed that the DOE2.3-50h command line tool does not yet appear in the DOE2 download area. We run a lot custom tools (for parametric runs, optimization, etc.) through the command line tool, and are wondering if anyone knows when/if DOE23-50h will be available for download?

With thanks and best wishes,

Daniel

Daniel,
Did you compare the results from an eQuest model with DOE2350e to see if there are significant differences?

Hi Chris,

I haven?t done a detailed comparison, but we have run into simulation problems (abnormal simulation results errors) with 50e when modelling air source heat pump or VRF in cold climates which appear to have been resolved in 50h.

All the best,

Daniel
