modelElectricEIR_AirCooled

Test model for chiller electric EIR with air-cooled condenser

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples), Buildings.Fluid.Chillers.Examples.BaseClasses.PartialElectric_AirCooled (Base class for test model of chiller electric EIR with air-cooled condenser).

Information

Example that simulates a chiller whose efficiency is computed based on the condenser entering and evaporator leaving fluid temperature. A bicubic polynomial is used to compute the chiller part load performance. This example is for an air-cooled chiller.
