  1. The refrigeration version of eQUEST is used to model commercial refrigeration equipment, it has limited whole-building energy analysis capabilities.
  2. You cannot change to the metric system in eQUEST, I believe that you can do so in CAN-QUEST.
  3. The Canadian version is called CAN-QUEST, for more information see here.
  4. INP is the DOE-2 input file format, DOE-2 being the simulation software that eQUEST uses. You can import INP files in eQUEST. If you want to open an eQUEST project on another computer, you need at least both the INP and PD2 file.
  5. I do not have any special recommendations. I feel like it all depends on what you are trying to do and your current knowledge of building energy simulation, building science, and HVAC equipment.
