Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] About the MicroCHP in EnergyPlus

[Edwin Lee <leeed2001@xxxxxxxxx>]

A quick grep in the example files folder shows one file that includes mention of a microchp system:

$ grep -i -m 1 microchp *.idf

MicroCogeneration.idf:!                          A combustion MicroCHP follows thermal loads with electrical limiting.

Hi,

I am a PhD student from University of Connecticut. Now I am working on the simulation of a small community with several buildings and energy devices.

In my problem, there is a device called Combined Cooling, Heating and Power (CCHP). I found the MicroCHP in EnergyPlus is similar to CCHP.  Are there any examples of this MicroCHP? If not, how to set "Air inlet and outlet node name"? In addtion, is it possible to build a CCHP model based on CHP model in EnergyPlus by adding a chiller?

Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks

Best
