blockCapacityRequirement

Cooling capacity requirement

Information

Calculates cooling capacity requirement based on the measured chilled water return temperature TChiWatRet, calculated chilled water supply temperature setpoint TChiWatSupSet, and the measured chilled water flow VChiWat_flow.
The calculation is according to Guideline 36-2021, section 5.20.4.8.

When a stage change process is in progress, as indicated by a boolean input chaPro, the capacity requirement is kept constant for the longer of holPer and the duration of the change process.
The calculation is according to Guideline 36-2021, section 5.20.4.9.
