Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] availabilityManager:High temperaturTurnoff






Dr.Li ,
i use water heater + ZoneHVAC:LowTemperatureRadiant:ConstantFlow  ,( i want too learn this part )
but i have problem in it ,
could you please see it  if i send my idf?
thanks

In that case, detach the DHW or assume that its working temperature  can be ignored.You said that it has an auxiliary heater at one time. Control the pump with a zone  theremostat, or set the boiler thermostat to what you want. Simple. Dr. Li

because the building that i want to simulate , it works according to controling plant temperature not zone air temperature ,
 
ok thanks

Go ahead and program what you wanted in the IDF and run it.   It can be done.  How?  I do not think I want to spend any more time on email.   As your earlier IDF was already running, I do not know why you keep wanting to control the plant temperature and ignoring the zone control and building errors.  These numbers are in the plant sizing and boiler design.  Of cource, you can use setpoint manager and EMS as well.    Dr. Li

Dr.Li :
in the building that i simulated :The real building or the IDF? 
 real building
 
 
 
 
the thermostat of boiler ( aquastat ) switch on/off the burner , and the thermostat surface on the main return pipe hot water loop that it controls hot water pump (HW pump ) and another thermostat on the domostic hot water pipe of coil tank for domostic hot water that controls when water of in the coil needs heat
 
 
 
 
 
 
If these are on your real building, they are thermometers, and do not do any controlling.
 
no there are nt thermometr , there are thermostat ,
thermometr just measured tempersture but thermostat conrols temperature,
 
If these are in the IDF, they should be properly entered with the correct names, controllers and managers.  They are not necessary, as the boiler thermostat will do all these for you.
 Dr.Li ,  what is boiler thermostat in energyplus ?is this design outlet water temperature  in boiler class ? you mean when i enter  design outler water temperature: 80 , it means when outlet boiler temperature is greater than 80 then boiler will be off and when less than 80 it will be on ?it doesn have any deadband?
You will not be able to use the set point managers and EMS, if you cannot distinguish a thermometer from a thermostat function.
i know what is different between thermostat and thermometer , thermometr just measured the temperature of that node , but themostat controls the temperature ,
 
I kept saying that you need not control the pump in the EPlus simulation, and you insist that it must stop at  80°C and start at 65°C and turn on and off the boiler fire.  The system does not operate in your way.
 
  i say boiler will be on and off with its temperature of burner ( if greater than 8o boiler will be off , and if less than 75 will be on , 5 is its deadband) and i say hw pumo contrl with its own thermostat that install in the return hot water pipe ,
You e-mail below showed a DHW schedule which is on all the time except at 3am.  That was why I said that your pump will not turn off.  You have not proved that the schedule was actually working in your IDF.
 yes i know that , in my schedule the domostic hot water for 3 am is 0 then DHW pump will be off , but i talk about hw pump controll
 
Showing me some isolated schedules and objects will not help.

An intermitent pump in EPlus is one which can be switched on and off.    The pump itself does not sense the flow rate, the pressure or the temperature.  It is switched on/off by another controller. could you please describe more little about what controller?
  It may turn itself off, if the pressure is too high for safety reasons.  This is why you have a by-pass branch in the loop.    The thermostat turns off the burner.
the zone air thermostat turn off the burner?  It should not turns off the pump at the same time, unless the pump has a by-pass.   I do not know what switches it off in your real system.

the pump will run at its capacity if a load is sensed and will shut off if  there is no load on loop ,

That was because you were not using the DHW, and you have 1 mega watt of furnace power.   The boiler furnace does not control the HW pump.  Dr. Li

This is why you must not change names and create different names of the objects.   "HW pump" is not the same as "pump" to me.  I do not associate 3 and 4 with the spread sheet as they are only for two other variables.   HW pump on and boiler off is a valid state, because the pump is not controlled by the boiler.   The pump is on the supply side water loop, the boiler fire is on the heating tank source side, and is not in the water loop.  Your statement on EPlus is not correct.  Dr. Li

   thanks for looking that
The data looked normal.   You should have taken the temperature values at the same time.   yes i take it but in the excel file that i send you there is nt,
You did not record the DHW pump on the spread sheet.
i  recorded  DHW pump , but in this file that i send you it is only HW pump   HW pump off, boiler off not listed below,
i wrote wrong in number 3, sorry , it must be HW pump off ,boiler off   there is on the spread sheet.
 in my energyplus result i dont see number 4 case (HW pump on and boiler off ) i dont undrestand why?
 ) Hw pump off but boiler on   (DHW is being heated)
2)Hw pump on and boiler on  (Normal )
3)HW pump 0ff but boiler on  (HW below set point, DHW not in use)
4)HW pump on and boiler off  (Tank is hot enough for a while)  i dont this  case result ( HW pump on and boiler off ) in my energyplus result ,
This is an indication that you did not plan the experiment well, and do not record the actual condition on site.   Instead of 0 and 1's on the spread sheet, you should combined the states and then list the meaning of each state.  Two pumps and a boiler fire should give you 8 states.
 yes you are right i have 8 states, but in the excel file that i sent you , there is only the result of HW pump and boiler 
Some states may not be possible, and then your should try to explain them.    Dr. Li
