Simulation used for the selection and sizing of a centralized cooling plant: methodology and limitations.

Author(s) : BOURDOUXHE J. P.

Summary

The paper focuses on the selection and sizing of a centralized cooling plant. Its purpose is to show how simulation can help the designer and to point out the difficulties encountered by the simulation user. In the design stage, various alternative cooling systems are available. Since the paper stresses methodology, only two design alternatives of centralized chilling plant are considered: with air-cooled reciprocating chillers and with water-cooled twin-screw chillers. The sizing of these two cooling plants is based on the sizing criteria and the building thermal loads in design conditions.
