[Equest-users] Chiller cooling capacity

[Mark Nieman]

It's under "Capacity", see below (note you input MBtu/h or 100 ton=1.2
MBtu/h). If you leave it empty, eQUEST will autosize the chiller:

CAPACITY


The cooling capacity of the chiller. The SPECIFIED-AT keyword indicates
whether the specified capacity is at the RATED-CONDITIONS or the
DESIGN-CONDITIONS. 

If you do not specify CAPACITY, it defaults to the chilled water loop
capacity times CAPACITY-RATIO. If no CAPACITY-RATIO is input, the
capacity will default to the loop capacity divided by the number of
chillers attached to the loop.

Good morning,
Where do I have to insert the cooling capacity of a chiller? in the
equipment capacity (in the chiller properties) or in the process load
(in the circulation loop properties)? 
thanx,
Lilach.
