[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Coupling solar collector and heat pump



In principle you are asking if one can splice two heaing sources into one system. I believe you can. Just as you can add x2 boilers in parallel on the supply side of the plant loop. You may find that you'll use two waterheating:mixed objects instead of boilers...one for the heat pump source and one for the solar collector source.

They will each in turn be supplied by there own plant loops.

Refer to earlier posts on waterheater:mixed objects.
