[BLDG-SIM] eQuest - error CHW temp vs. LAT

[Alec Stevens]

Hi,

eQuest is giving us an error when modeling a chiller plant that has a high
delta-T.  The chilled water temps are 41ºF / 57ºF, and the anticipated
discharge temp off the coil is 55ºF.  This would be accomplished by a
relatively deep coil.  eQuest does not like the fact that the return CHW
Temp is higher than the leaving air temp.  It would like to see at least a
6ºF approach between the two.  

 

Any suggestions on how to satisfy eQuest while maintaining a good simulation
of the CHW pumping energy and chiller compressor performance?

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

 

Sincerely,
