blockCoolingCoilValve

Cooling coil valve position control sequence

Information

Control sequence that outputs the cooling coil valve position. The implementation is according to the ALC EIKON control sequence implementation in one of LBNL buildings.

  • August 29, 2023, by Hongxiang Fu:
    Because of the removal of Logical.And3 based on ASHRAE 231P, replaced it with a stack of two Logical.And blocks. This is for #2465.
  • April 09, 2018, by Milica Grahovac:
    First implementation.
