Packaged RTU

Hi,

I am trying to model a packaged rooftop VAV unit. I have selected the type
PVAV but this does not allow me to add terminal units. I want my perimeter
zones to have fan powered VAV boxes while my interior zones will have
standard VAV boxes. Any idea how to add the VAV boxes?

Thanks in advance!

Susan,

I believe that only the "Powered Induction Unit" system type in eQuest allows
you to model a VAV system with fan powered boxes (series or parallel). With
the PIU system type, you can model all FPT boxes, or a combination of FPT
boxes and standard boxes. Select the specific box type in the zone airflow
tab ? "Zone Terminal and Fans" ? "Terminal Type" ? Standard VAV, Series PIU,
Parallel PIU ...

Regards,

James Hess
