[Equest-users] Heat Recovery Chiller Connections

2 posts / 0 new
Last post

The building design is that I have one chiller connected to the hot water loop, one chiller connected to the condenser loop. Then the condenser and hot water loops have a heat exchanger between them.

Right now I have it modelled as two chillers, both with heat recovery to the hot water loop and both connected to the condenser loop.

Does that make sense, or is there a better way to model it?

This is my first eQuest project (I've used DOE2.1E/EE4 before.) Picked a nice complex arena to start with.

Thanks,
Alex

I had something similar to this but had slab heating tied to the hw loop along with coils -both at different temps, followed with a portion of the building tied to a chilled water loop.

I got it to run, but didn't trust the outcome unfortunately, so we changed and simplified our system.
