[Bldg-sim] Chiller and boiler efficiency curves

FYI:

I've always found the Cool Tools library helpful...

Otherwise, you can make your own from measured data, which is documented in the appendix of a number of thesis on the ESL's web site www.esl.tamu.edu<http://www.esl.tamu.edu>, look under thesis, for example Tarek Bou Saada, Suwon Song, and soon, Soolyeon Cho's thesis.

Subject: [Bldg-sim] Chiller and boiler efficiency curves

Hello,

Sometimes, when modelling HVAC systems, its very difficult to find performance curves of boilers, chillers, split and VRV machines, since the energy plus data sets may not have it. Sometimes the manufacturer technical data does not have it also.  Does anyone know any other sources of this information?
