May I ask what is a "scroll type" compressor.
I have not check the data base folder for this type. I think, it is only the performance curves are different in the simulation. As far as I know, it does not matter whether it is a heat pump or an EIR when it is used for chiller only. Condenser is to air, therefore, no condenser loop is required. Your design is a simple water chiller. Coil water to air, means the coil is water and the air flows through the coil surface. If the coolant flows in the coil, then it is a DX coil. Heatpump is usually operated with air to air, with the evaporator and compressor coil switched around for coolant and heating in a location that the Winter is not very cold. For a large capacity heatpump, then water is used to feed the AHU coils, and the condenser loop provides more cooling and may use water to feed a tower to help cooling.

The design system is as follows:
- heat pump - compressor is scroll-type - heat sink is air - heat pump produces chilled water and hot water - cooled or heated air is blown into the zones We are considering using the object Coil:Cooling:WaterToAirHeatPump:ParameterEstimation and Coil:Heating:WaterToAirHeatPump:ParameterEstimation to model the system. However, in the E+ example file folder we could only find examples with ground source heat exchanger as the heat sink. In our case, the heat pump is air-cooled, which means the heat sink is outdoor air. We don't know how to model that. Or, we should use another object? Please help.
