[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Indirect Water Heater + Cogen

I'm thinking that if two parallel furnis/boilers can sit on the supply side of the plant loop, maybe the waste heat from the micro chip can go into a waterheater:mixed object and that waterheater:mixed object can also sit on the supply side plant replacing one of the boilers I mentioned. this plantloop can then supply your DHW tank. 

What do you think?
