[EnergyPlus_Support] Absorption chiller model

["Jun Calixihan" <jcalixihan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

 

Need help identifying source of error in my model for absorption chiller.
Below is the error.  I tried editing the condenser pump, chiller parameters,
equipment sizes, loop temperatures, etc. but can't seem to arrive at the
source of error.  I uploaded the idf file named
AbsorptionChillerModified.idf

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Best Regards,

Jun
