2 2 Purpose of this Lecture  Gain an understanding of: EnergyPlus loop controls Some of the many EnergyPlus plant and condenser components

3 3 Keywords Categories Covered in this Lecture  Plant Loop and Condenser Loop  Plant Operation Schemes, Cooling/Heating Load Range Based Operation, Load Range Equipment List  Coil  Pump  Boiler  Chiller  Cooling Tower  Curve

4 4 Plant Loop  IDD Description: PLANT LOOP, A1, \field Plant Loop Name A2, \field Fluid Type (Water) A3, \field Plant Operation Scheme List Name A4, \field Loop Temperature Setpoint Schedule Name N1, \field Maximum Loop Temperature in C N2, \field Minimum Loop Temperature in C N3, \field Maximum Loop Volumetric Flow Rate in m3/s N4, \field Minimum Loop Volumetric Flow Rate in m3/s N5, \field volume of the plant loop in m3 A5, \field Plant Side Inlet Node Name A6, \field Plant Side Outlet Node Name A7, \field Plant Side Branch List Name A8, \field Plant Side Connector List Name A9, \field Demand Side Inlet Node Name A10, \field Demand Side Outlet Nodes Name A11, \field Demand Side Branch List Name A12, \field Demand Side Connector List Name A13; \field Load Distribution Scheme (Optimal|Sequential) Control information Flow and temperature limits for both sides of the loop Supply side nodes, branches, and connections Demand side nodes, branches, and connections Control information

5 5 Plant Loop Limits  Provides upper and lower boundaries for temperature and flow rate  Pump will operate within this range of flows (pump controls actual flow rate)  Loop will not be allowed to vary temperature beyond temperature limits

6 6 Plant Loop Controls: Temperature  Setpoint temperature for plant loop can be scheduled  Plant loop will run equipment as needed and as defined by the remaining controls to meet setpoint temperature  If not enough equipment capacity, loop setpoint temperature may not be met (can “catch-up” in future time steps)  Pump controls will determine loop flow rate

7 7 Plant Loop Controls: Load Distribution  Sequential Sequential simply operates equipment in a serial manner based on the loop operation scheme (which assigns priority to different equipment on the loop) When highest priority equipment is out of capacity, next highest priority equipment tries to meet the load, etc.  Optimal Parallel operation of equipment Tries to find an “optimal” balance of the plant loop load between equipment based on the operating characteristics of the equipment on the loop Not a strict optimization, simply an approximation at what might be the best load distribution from an energy perspective

8 8 Plant Loop Controls: Operation Scheme  List of load ranges that define which equipment might try to meet a load  Requires following input: Plant Operation Schemes—a list of load range definitions and the schedules for when they are in effect Cooling/Heating Load Range Based Operation—a list of load ranges and the lists of equipment that are operating for those ranges Load Range Equipment List—the equipment lists referenced by the load ranges
