Validation of cooling tower group model

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This model validates Buildings.DHC.Plants.Combined.Subsystems.CoolingTowerGroup in a configuration with two tower cells. The tower cells are initially enabled and they are disabled one after the other as the CW supply temperature setpoint is increasing after an initial period where it is fixed at its design value. The Start command of the CW pumps is the same signal as the one used for the cooling towers.
