Single speed DX heating coil

Extends from Buildings.Fluid.DXSystems.Heating.BaseClasses.PartialDXHeatingCoil (Partial model for DX heating coil).

Information

This model can be used to simulate an air-source DX heating coil with single speed compressor.

See Buildings.Fluid.DXSystems.Heating.UsersGuide for an explanation of the model.

Revisions

  • May 31, 2023, by Michael Wetter:
    Changed implementation to use phi rather than water vapor concentration as input because the latter is not available on the weather data bus.
  • March 8, 2023, by Xing Lu and Karthik Devaprasad:
    Initial implementation.
