Hi Pranita,

I believe your error is referring to the heating capacity value that you
input in your model. If you did input this value, you probably indicated it
as a "positive" number value. For heating capacities, DOE-2 wants to have
them entered as a "negative" number value.

Go back and add a - sign in front of your heating capacity input values.
This should correct your error.

If not, send it back to me and I'm happy to take another look at it.

It looks like that you input a too large heating capacity:

1.09e8 (british thermal unit per hour) = 31 944.7466 kilowatts

it's too large to exceed the limitation of heating capacity in eQuest, fix
it down to a normal level, and I think the error will disappear.
