This hands-on event will provide a general overview and introduction to detailed building energy analysis using eQUEST's Detailed Interface. The focus will be on detailed design application beyond the schematic level of whole-building energy analysis methods using eQUEST. The Detailed interface is a full Windows® interface to DOE-2.2, the latest version of DOE-2 and the calculation engine within eQUEST. Discussed will also be selected detailed interface procedures such as defining custom constructions and glass properties, and building operations schedules, as well as advanced features such as customizing geometry for specialized applications, modeling more complex HVAC systems or lighting systems, other popular sustainable technologies, LEED analysis, detailed development of daylighting models, the use of parametric processing, and introduction to working directly in DOE-2's Building Description Language.

Who should attend?
Architects, Engineers, Other design professionals, Anyone wanting a better understanding of how to use eQUEST
