Purpose of this Lecture Gain an understanding of: Water (fluid) side loop structures in EnergyPlus How to control fluid flow rates using the EnergyPlus pump strategies

Defining Loops Loops define the movement of mass and energy within an HVAC system Plant loop Condenser loop Heat recovery loop Systems defined by the order of branches/components on the HVAC loop

Defining Loops (cont’d) Main loops divided into “sub-loops” or “semi-loops” for organizational clarity & simulation logistics Sub-loops are matched pairs that consist of half of the main loop. For example, plant and condenser loops are broken into supply and demand sides.

Demand- & Supply-Side Sub-Loops Plant demand-side sub-loop contains equipment that creates a load on the plant. Plant supply-side sub-loop contains equipment that meets these loads. Each supply-side sub-loop must be connected to a demand-side loop.

Layout for Individual HVAC Supply or Demand Sub-Loops Elements can be defined in series, in parallel, or both with some restrictions Branches are defined as individual legs within the loop structure Segment between point A & B is defined as a branch, as is the section between points E and F

Layout for Individual HVAC Supply or Demand Sub-Loops The first supply side component between A & B must be the loop pump, which controls the loop flow. There may be multiple branches between the splitter and mixer (between points C1 & D1 to Cn & Dn). Each sub-loop may only have one splitter and one mixer.

Layout for Individual HVAC Supply or Demand Sub-Loops Equipment may be in parallel between the mixer and splitter, Within any branch, there can only be elements in series. Sub-loops do not require a splitter or mixer, if all equipment on the sub-loop is in series—a single branch defines the entire sub-loop.

Pumping Rules Pumps must be on the supply side Splitter Mixer Components Loop Pump From Demand- Side Sub-Loop To Demand- Side Sub-Loop Supply-Side Sub-Loop Pumps must be on the supply side Pumps can operate as constant or variable flow Pumps can run continuously or intermittently

Pumping Rules (cont’d) Single boiler/chiller with NO bypass, PUMP:CONSTANT SPEED Boiler/chiller should be constant flow Pump should be intermittent Single boiler/chiller with NO bypass, PUMP:VARIABLE SPEED Boiler/chiller should be variable flow, regardless of whether pump is intermittent or continuous (runs at the minimum if demand is less than minimum, this includes zero.)

Pumping Rules (cont’d) Single boiler/chiller with bypass, PUMP:CONSTANT SPEED Boiler/chiller can be constant or variable flow Pump may be intermittent or continuous as long as the bypass can handle the entire pump volume when the boiler is not operating

Pumping Rules (cont’d) Multiple branches add more complexity, but it is nothing more than continuity. If the pump is putting out flow then it has to have a branch to flow down whether it is a chiller or a bypass.

Pumping Rules (cont’d) You are always safer adding the bypass for a simulation. If the active machines require the flow the bypass will be dry Thermodynamically it does not make any difference if the flow goes through a machine that is OFF or it flows down the bypass. There is no pressure simulation and flow losses are not accounted for.

Summary of Loop Limitations Each sub-loop allowed one splitter and one mixer One bypass on each sub-loop optional No other components may be in series with a bypass Equipment may be in parallel only between the splitter and mixer Equipment may be in series in each branch

Summary Loops are backbone of HVAC simulation all equipment attached to air or fluid loops Loop structure permits assembly of any system through input—not hardwired Primary system may consist of four different loops: plant supply and demand, condenser supply and demand Pumps regulate flow while attempting to meet requests on both sides of each loop pair Individual loops may have components in series and parallel with some limitations
