Secondary Chill water loop design flow rate error

Dear All,

I am trying to model a chill water system with a primary and secondary
loop. I have created the secondary chill water loop and the secondary pumps
linked to the primary loop.

But during simulations there is an error indicating " secondary loop chill
water deign flow is zero" in spite there is a user fed value for the
secondary flow.

Thanking in advance for any suggestion to get the simulations running

Anura,

Part 3 of the document linked below discusses how to set-up
primary/secondary chilled water distribution loops in eQUEST:
http://www.energydesignresources.com/media/2654/EDR_DesignGuidelines_%20HVAC_Simulation.pdf

If that doesn't help you could send your .pd2 & .inp file out and someone
could check it for you.

Hope that helps,
