Simulation Error with No Error Report

Hi All,

I have a strange EQuest error which is leaving me somewhat at a loss.

Although there are no errors with the file on startup, when I try to run a simulation it tells me that the run was terminated due to an error but does not give me any information about what the error was. When I search the BDL file for "ERROR" there is nothing there.

I attach a screenshot and .inp file.

Regards,

Andrew

If the Ancillary AHU is a DOAS system supplying OA to the other fan
systems, it will have to be listed first in the INP file among the fan
systems.

You can move it up to first position in the *.inp file directly. (I don't
know how to do this within eQuest...anyone?)

Helpful tip: save a backup copy of any input files you intend to modify
in text editor if you aren't practiced at editing the files that way.

Andy,

if you don't see your error in the BDL file, sometimes it is only written to
the output file. Open your .sim file for this run and then scroll down as
far as you can....your file should show that it terminated at some error.
There should be some clues at that point as to what maybe causing the
program to terminate.
