[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Tables 6.8.1 - ASHRAE 90.1-2007

["fpasserini.tn@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, Jean. I am considering ASHRAE 90.1-2010 because I'm considering a LEED v.4 project. I wrote in the wrong discussion and I confused...

In ASHRAE 2010 for "Propeller or axial fan open-circuit cooling towers" the performance required is 3.23 L / (s*kW) while for "Propeller or axial fan closed-circuit cooling towers" the performance required is 1.18  L / (s*kW). For the baseline model according to Appendix G shall I consider the first value?

Does 2007 differentiate? It's been a while...probably open loop. The closed loop tower possibly performs a little less effectively, but has other real world advantages. I'm betting the performance gap is small, but don't have any experience to say for sure.

Other questions relative to Table 6.8.1G of ASHRAE 90.1-2007:

- for the baseline model (System 8) shall I consider "open-circuit cooling towers" or "closed-circuit cooling towers"?

- how could the required performance be imposed in EnergyPlus? I'm using the object CoolingTower:TwoSpeed

Best Regards
