[Equest-users] CHW delta T in eQUEST

[Umesh Atre]

I am trying to determine the effect of increasing the chilled water
delta T on the energy consumption in an office building. I set up 2
models, 
one with 10 deg delta T, and the other increased to 15 deg on the
chilled water loop (elec. centrifugal chiller was used). All other
parameters are same in both models.
 
The results show a drop of ~14% in pump energy, but they also show a
reduction on both the cooling (~6%) and heat rejection (~3%). 
Why does the increase in chilled water delta T show savings on these 2
other end-uses? 
 
Thanks for any help
