Modeling chilled beams (IU) with zone level cooling as secondary loop

Has any tried modeling the IU system with a chilled water loop with ~42F at the AHU, and attached the zone level to a secondary loop with 58F?

Does this behave more like a traditional chilled beam setup where dehumidification takes place at the AHU and sensible only cooling at the zone level?

Thanks,

Yes, it works.

Also modeled this for a project with a ground-coupled loop with separate
chillers supplying one temp to the AHU coils and a higher temp (56?F) to the
chilled beams.
