How are water systems end uses calculated?

Hey everybody,

I am doing my thesis, which contains calculations of DHW usage. I am trying to figure out, how is calculated the end use of water systems. I have DETAILED HVAC. Just simple electric loop with one outlet and one DHW tank. When I run short simulation (1-2days) and cross check with simple Q = m * c * t (J) calculation, it doesnt get same number, so I suppose there is another way.. Do anybody know how it is calculated?
