[Equest-users] Process Equipment Power Consumption

[omoltay at mimtarch.com]

Dear All,

One of the things that cause most trouble for us in modelling is the power
consumption of equipment such as dishwashers, ovens, food warm-up
equipment and so on that have varying levels of power consumption during
operation (even PCs and laptops). We are sometimes using nameplate
installed kW values, but deep inside we know that this is quite wrong -
but we have no other more reliable source / guideline for such equipment.
I would appreciate any feedbacks on how others are modelling such
equipment.

Thank you,
