RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Something about the water heater: mixed

 
The water heater object can be used to simulate domestic hot water usage by adding a DOMESTIC HOT WATER object to your plant loop.  Make sure to put the DOMESTIC HOT WATER object in a branch that is parallel to your hot water fan coils, not in series.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Something about the water heater: mixed



Dear all

I am using a water heater to recover the heat from an IC engine. In the winter, the water 
heater will supply hot water to the fan coil unit for heating.
But I want the heater to supply domestic water during the summer rather than supply hot 
water to the fan coil unit. How can set up the water heater for the purpose?
Since the I/O reference says that only the stand-alone mode of the heater can supply the 
domestic water, how can I make the heater use the exhausted heat from the engine?
Thank you in advance.
