A question for this august group. I would like to be able to approximate
the heat load and cooling load of my house for various outside temperatures.
(don't worry about convection as my house is tightly sealed). If I know the
heat output of the heater in my house and if I record the heat output at a
given outside temperature (while In equilibrium), how many data points would
I need to draw a reasonable graph so that I could extrapolate and
interpolate the heat load at various outside temperatures?
Would the graph be pretty close to and exponential curve?
