Use of simulation when choosing and sizing a high-capacity chiller: method and limitations.

L'utilisation de la simulation lors de la sélection et du dimensionnement d'une centrale de froid : méthodologie et limitations.

Type of article: Article

Summary

When designing a chilled water production plant for air conditioning, the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) engineer has several options. This article is aimed at demonstrating how a suitable simulation tool can help the HVAC engineer compare energy performances of various types of high-capacity refrigerating chillers, and showing the problems encountered by the user of simulation tools.
