What is eQUEST energy modeling?

What is eQUEST energy modeling?

• The Quick Energy Simulation Tool, or eQUEST is a DOE-2. interface which allows users to develop 3-dimensional. simulation models of a particular building design.

What is the purpose of eQUEST?

eQuest is a DOE-2 interface that provides simple wizards to guide the user through model development, while accessing DOE-2 capabilities. eQuest and other simulation tools are commonly used by project design teams as a tool to enable evaluation of energy consumption impacts related to specific design options.

How do I download eQuest?

Go to the eQUEST Website. If the doe2 website is not working, the software installer is also located in the Readings and Resources folder found within the Canvas course page. 2. Under eQUEST Version 3.65 Download, locate the download link.

What is the latest DOE-2 building energy simulation and cost calculation engine?

DOE-2.3- The latest DOE-2 building energy simulation and cost calculation engine is DOE-2.3.

What is DOE-2 E?

DOE-2.1E is the “legacy” version of DOE-2. Note: DOE-2 is Qualified Software for Calculating Commercial Building Tax Deductions first enacted under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT), later extended by the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 and most recently extended and modified by the PATH Act of 2015.

What versions of DOE-2 can I use with eQuest?

DOE-2.2 is the “simulation engine” contained within eQUEST; we strongly recommend you consider eQUEST before trying to use “plain” DOE-2. DOE-2.2 can run in windows versions from XP to 10. DOE-2.1E is the “legacy” version of DOE-2.

Where can I download the DOE-2 47h2 documentation?

Documentation for the DOE-2.2 version 47h2, as contained within the online help for this eQUEST release, can be downloaded in PDF format using the links below or visit the DOE-2.2 page . You should save these files to your hard drive (right click on link then “save target as”) prior to opening them as they are each several megabytes in size.
