[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Parallel Equipment Control



I have the exact question. I am trying to model a GSHP to operate at low temps and when the zone temps drop, to use a boiler at high temps. Is it possible and how?

I want to be able to control the absorption chiller availability based on the supplied HW temperature and then utilize the electric chillers when the HW temp is too low.  Does anyone have any ideas as to how to accomplish this?  Could I use the PlantEquipmentOperation:ComponentSetpoint control?  Thanks in advance.
