Hello,
I have been asked by one of my clients to do calibration of eQUEST model against hourly energy data of different systems. They will send me 60 to 90 days energy data for various equipment such as pumps, cooling towers, air conditioning units, lighting...etc and they want me to calibrate the model against these hourly data. These hourly data will be collected during ASHRAE Level III energy audit.
I have done many calibration against the monthly energy data from the actual bills but this is the first time I have been asked to do it against the hourly data so, can you please explain to me how to do it against the hourly data? Thanking you in advance.
Is it done by adding up the hourly data from the energy audit measurements to make it monthly data and then compare it against the data for each system in PS-F simulation report? But how we can do that if the customer providing only 60 to 90 days hourly data and not for a full year?
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Ahmad
