Modelers,

I am trying to model the impact of adding additional insulation to a 2-story
pitched roof office building using Equest. My baseline model shows the roof
U-value to be 0.026 and my parametric run to have a roof U-value of 0.019
(report LV-I). However, there was no change in heating and cooling energy
usage. I then looked at the building peak load components (report LS-C) and
noticed that there are no roof losses for either run.

So the main question I have is; why are there no roof conduction losses?
Have I incorrectly modeled something or is there an issue with pitched roofs
and conduction losses in Equest. I have attached the pd2 and inp files for
these runs for anyone's review.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
