Refrigeration version - mechanical subcooler

Last post

I have a model of a refrigerated warehouse in the refrigeration version
of eQUEST.? It is running in version 7174 currently.

I am trying to add a mechanical subcooler to the model.? I can add the
subcooler keywords, the PS-H for the subcooler is generated but so far
despite many control keyword iterations, I am seeing no load on the
subcooler and no impact on the refrigeration system with its inclusion
in the model.

Currently, my inputs are:

"Subcooler 1" = SUBCOOLER
?? TYPE???????????? = MECHANICAL
?? ATTACH-TO??????? = REFG-SYSTEM
?? REFG-SYSTEM????? = "Refrigeration System"
?? CAPACITY???????? = {#PA("Subcool Cap TR")*3413}
?? DESIGN-SUBCOOL-T = 40
?? SST-SUBCOOL-TD?? = {60}
?? SUPERHEAT-DT???? = {101-90}
?? TEMP-CTRL??????? = SATURATION-DT
?? SATURATION-DT??? = 40
?? SUCTION-CIRCUIT? = "Low Temp Suction Circuit"
?? ..
"Subcool liquid circuit" = REFG-CIRCUIT
?? TYPE???????????? = LIQUID
?? ATTACH-TO??????? = SUBCOOLER
?? SUBCOOLER??????? = "Subcooler 1"
?? ..

Has anyone successfully added mechanical subcooling to a refrigeration
version simulation?

Many thanks,

Brian
