Test model for chiller electric reformulated EIR

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples), Buildings.Fluid.Chillers.Examples.BaseClasses.PartialElectric (Base class for test model of chiller electric EIR).

Information

Example that simulates a chiller whose efficiency is computed based on the condenser leaving and evaporator leaving fluid temperature. A bicubic polynomial is used to compute the chiller part load performance.

Revisions

  • August 14, 2014, by Michael Wetter:
    Added missing redeclare keyword in performance data redeclaration. This avoids an error in OpenModelica.
  • September 17, 2010, by Michael Wetter:
    First implementation.
