Dear All,
I am using eQuest to model an Hotel building in a very hot, dry climate
zone which is has a great opportunity for energy saving when using
evaporative cooling in summer. I have modeled direct evaporative cooling
for 100% outdoor air handling unit along with sensible recovery wheel to
recover the exhaust air stream energy into the outdoor air.
When I run the model simulation and got into the "ERV Energy Recovery
Summary" and "SUPL Evap/Desicant Cooling" reports, I could not interpretate
the outputs to understand if the system is working appropriately or not.
I wonder if anyone can help me and provide me with some guidance or
example on ERV and Evap Cooling systems input and control setup as well as
the system output reports interpretation and what I need to do to get my
model run correctly reflecting the real system operation and predicted
saving.
- My model *.inp file is attached for your reference.
