[EnergyPlus_Support] WSHP to turn waste heat from the chilled water and condenser water loops

["jai191" <Jay.Ramkumar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey All,

We are trying to use a large water to water non reversible carnot 
cycle heat pump to turn waste heat from the chilled water and 
condenser water loops into useful heat in a hot water loop.  The 
model we made is based off of the benchmark large office building.  
We are trying to model this "heat recovery" two ways.  

1. By modeling a water to water heat pump (parameter 
estimation:heating) by adding the condenser in the hot water loop 
before the boiler.  The evaporator is placed immediately before the 
chiller.

2. By modeling a water to water heat pump (parameter 
estimation:heating) by adding the condenser in the hot water loop 
before the boiler and the evaporator after the chiller condenser and 
before the cooling tower in the condenser loop.

Currently, the file is producing the desired SVG drawing but it is 
crashing before producing much else,  The error file is providing no 
help as no errors are being reported.  Has anybody had this problem 
before?  Is there a better way of modeling this "heat recovery"?  I 
will attached the idf file for your review.

Thank You!
Jay
