Title: eQUEST(ion)

Samuel,

I think you can set the material of the wall to have a very high R-value. I'm not sure you can make it completely adiabatic though. One possibility (though I have not examined it too closely, could be to model it as an interior wall, and reference the parent space os being adjacent to it. I have not tried this method yet, and dont know if it will give you errors.

Dear Bldg-sim users,
1. Is it possible to model adiabatic exterior walls? If not, can we turn exterior walls into interior walls, and then to adiabatic walls?. I`m always talking about eQUEST. The fact is that I need some exterior walls not to have heat conduction and I can't come up with a solution that works.

2. I'm new in building simulation, and I'm beguining to understand how hard is to develop this kind of programs. With all the public institutions support (and funding), at least in Europe, can we expect a further and faster development in next few years? What is the situation in the U.S.A.?  In my opinion the demand of this simulation programs and its developers it's unstoppable.

Thanks,
Feliz Navidad
