Hello,

I have a very large Hotel I need to model which has a central lobby that is served by an underfloor air distribution system. Does anyone have any helpful tips on how to go about modeling this even though EQUEST does not have a UFAD system type?

Energy Design Resources provides a guideline for modeling UAFD. See "HVAC Simulation Guidelines" at the following link.

See attachment for another proposed method for estimating UFAD savings. It produces a smaller percent savings compared to the one proposed by EDR.
