[Equest-users] Heat exchanger module

[Eric Youngson]

Pasha,

I have not received anything useful. I am not expecting anything,
really, I've heard from experienced modelers that there has been no
answer to this question in the past but there's always hoping!

                One caveat on the Loop-to-Loop HP-it can only attach to
the lake/well loop type. This has been a point of contention for some
time.

 

Happy modeling!

Eric,

 

did you receive any other responses?  If so, I'd be curious to what they
advised.  I have had problems attaching a heat exchanger to recover heat
from one loop to another.  I don't know if this will work but I recently
saw under the chiller "type" option which is a drop down menu that you
can choose (as a chiller) a Loop-to-Loop HP.  Although I haven't had a
chance to test this option, I found a little info in the help file, but
didn't offer a detailed description.

 

If you do try this and get it to work, please let me know.  I have two
projects where I need to transfer heat from one loop to another (ie.
heat recovery), but my models are only in the input stage for the
building footprints & zoning, haven't gotten to the systems inputs yet.

 

Regards,

 

Pasha

equest-users,

                                I am trying to connect two water loops
in order to recover heat with a water to water heat pump. I was trying
to do this with a heat exchanger but the heat exchanger module doesn't
seem to be able to attach to a loop! I am a missing something or is the
heat exchanger not functional?

 

Thx
