RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Integrated Collector Storage

["Ellis, Peter" <peter_ellis@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mohit,

 

EnergyPlus cannot currently model an Integrated Collector Storage (ICS)
system.  And unfortunately, there's no good equivalent system that I can
recommend.  Glycol won't help.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Integrated Collector Storage

 

Hi,
I noticed that there is no ICS solar water heater model in any of the
examples in E plus. There is a Indirect Solar Domestic Hot Water
example in E plus. I was wondering if there is a way to simulate an
ICS system using the Glycol system. That is, can we make E plus
simulate an equivalent iCS system with the Glycol example.
Also for someone who has not worked with E plus in a while, I was
wondering if there are any GUI's that people recommend using/have been
using Regularly.

Thanks
