Validation sequence of controlling tower fan speed based on condenser water return temperature control
Information
This example validates Buildings.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36.Plants.Chillers.Towers.FanSpeed.ReturnWaterTemperature.Controller.
It shows the calculations of the fan speed setpoint for the three different plants,
including the close coupled plants that have waterside economizer (towFanSpe),
the less coupled plants that have waterside economizer (towFanSpe1),
and the close coupled plants that have no waterside economizer (towFanSpe2).
-
For the close and less coupled plants with waterside economizer,
- if the plant is not enabled, the tower fan speed setpoint is 0.
-
if the economizer is enabled, the fan speed setpoint equals the
uTowSpeWSE. -
in the period when the chiller runs only, the speed setpoint
is minimum of the
plrTowMaxSpeSet,uMaxTowSpeSetand the mapped setpoint.
-
For the close coupled plants without waterside economizer,
the setpoint calculation is same as the one with economizer
except there is no economizer enabled period. So when the chiller
is enabled, the setpoint equals to the
plrTowMaxSpeSet,uMaxTowSpeSetand the mapped setpoint.
