Re: [TRNSYS-users] Energy Level Control

[David BRADLEY <d.bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Meer,
  in Energy Rage Control Type56 is computing the zone loads on the HVAC system. If you want a very rough idea of the energy use of the building you can simply multiply those loads by an average COP or efficiency. A better method is to impose those loads on a model of the HVAC system either by selecting energy rate control HVAC system components that take load as an input (there are relatively few of these) or by imposing the load on the water or air loop in the building using Type682 or Type693 in the TESS Loads and Structures library.
kind regards,
 David

Dear all,

When conducting energy level control for a building, i understand that, it is done internally by TRNbuilt, however, how can it consider the COP or efficiency of the AC in this case?
