Carol,
I believe that this confusion arises, for me at least, in the
fact that eQUEST only allows each zone to be assigned to one space as
described in the geometry. This also seems like it would reduce the
flexibility to rezone for different systems when doing design phase
modeling. Though I don't have enough experience to think of a good
example, it seems that this subtle point may have some important
consequences for accurate early design phase modeling.
As for the slave zones with hours not met-I'd like to add that
I'm having trouble getting the eQUEST design airflows to match the
actual designed values as well. OA is Specified and matches closely in
both the proposed & baseline but the design airflow in the baseline is
around 10,000 CFM short! Could this be caused by a the difference in
multi & single zone systems?

Thanks

Eric
