Hello all,
First time posting here, hopefully somebody can lead me in the right
direction. I have a model that shows very little heat rejection
consumption. I have inputs for the cooling tower capacity, fan kW, as well
as design parameters from the original drawings. The output file shows the
tower load to be at 100%, 8760 hrs/year, but the ELEC is between 0% and 10%
load for only 2500 hrs/year. this results in a very low heat rej
consumption. (15,000 kWh/year with four towers, 40-hp fans each).
I have gone through all of the waterside equipment multiple times trying to
figure out if I am missing something, but everything seems to be correct.
Has anyone encountered similar situations? Thank you in advance for your
input!
