[EnergyPlus_Support] Modeling Active Chilled Beams

Hi there,

I'm trying to model an office tower that is conditioned by active chilled beams. I am having an issue with the sequencing of systems on the Chilled Water Loop Demand Side.  The intent is for the chilled water to serve the Air Handling Units first.  The water on the secondary return mixes together after the AHUs, then serves the chilled beams at a higher temperature before returning to the chillers. 

It appears this loop architecture is not possible within energy plus. 

Do you have a recommended method for modelling chilled beams, given they cannot be modeled in parallel or series on the secondary demand loop?

Any assistance or work-arounds would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Alex
