[BLDG-SIM] Three WSHP/GSHP modeling challenges

I am starting a condominium tower project with three design features that I
am struggling with how to model in eQuest and DOE2.2.  Any ideas?

 

1)  WSHPs with desuperheaters.  I want to capture heat off the compressor
cycle for DHW, and show impact on WSHP performance and capacity. 

 

2)  Heat recovery ventilators in each townhouse in addition to WSHP.
Appears ERVs are not available with the WSHP system commands. 

 

3)  WSHP loop supplemented by a ground-source well-field sized to 25% of the
cooling peak.  WSHP loop with ground source well-field allows supplemental
cooling tower, but documentation says that a boiler cannot be used to
supplement the ground source well-field.  This WSHP and ground source loop
design with a boiler and tower is on a number of condo towers in Vancouver
BC apparently.  

 

Thanks,
