<html><head><base href="x-msg://29/"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Dear Miguel<div> </div><div>from what you write, I assume you have a model "up and running" that features "heating and cooling" via simple zone control. In controls, you typically enter the maximum power available (at the receiving end, that is). Simulation results will give you the fraction used at each time step. From this, it should be straightforward to calculated your electricity needs using the COP as a post-process step. No?</div><div> </div><div>There are likely more elaborate approaches available, e.g. via a plant. However, I do not know if there is a plant component available that will exactly fit your needs. Have you looked at plants? There are quite a few exemplars that feature a variety of plant networks.</div><div> </div><div>Best</div><div>Achim</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> <div><div>On Jan 26, 2011, at 2:41 PM, Miguel Silva wrote:</div> <blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div class="hmmessage" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma; "> Hi all, <div id="tts_button" class=" "> </div>My project has a air conditioning system based on split heat pump. I've walked in to look Esp-r and no find this component. How will I be able to know which energy expended (electric)? In the control module can only put the maximum power heating and cooling and in this case can never put the COP of the machine. someone can help me?
