Base subsystem with geothermal borefield

Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Subsystems.Borefield

Information

This is a model for a borefield system with a variable speed pump and a mixing valve modulated to maintain a maximum inlet temperature.

The system is controlled based on the logic described in Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Controls.Borefield. The pump flow rate is considered proportional to the pump speed under the assumption of a constant flow resistance in the borefield loop. This assumption is justified by the connection of the loop to the buffer tanks, and by the additional assumption that the bypass branch of the mixing valve is balanced with the direct branch.

(The parameter from_dp of the valve model is set to false to simplify the system of algebraic equations, which, in this specific case, alleviates non-convergence issues.)

Extends from Buildings.Fluid.Interfaces.PartialTwoPortInterface (Partial model transporting fluid between two ports without storing mass or energy).

Base subsystem with heat recovery chiller

Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Subsystems.Chiller

Information

This is a model for a chiller system with constant speed evaporator and condenser pumps, and mixing valves modulated to maintain a minimum condenser inlet temperature (resp. maximum evaporator inlet temperature).

The system is controlled based on the logic described in Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Controls.Chiller. The pump flow rate is considered proportional to the pump speed under the assumption of a constant flow resistance for both the condenser and the evaporator loops. This assumption is justified by the connection of the loops to the buffer tanks, and the additional assumption that the bypass branch of the mixing valves is balanced with the direct branch.

Base subsystem with district heat exchanger

Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Subsystems.HeatExchanger

Information

This is a model for a district heat exchanger system with a variable speed pump on the secondary side, and a variable speed pump (in case of a passive network) or a two-way modulating valve (in case of an active network) on the primary side.

The system is controlled based on the logic described in Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Controls.HeatExchanger. The pump flow rate is considered proportional to the pump speed under the assumption of a constant flow resistance in both the primary and the secondary loops.

Extends from Fluid.Interfaces.PartialFourPortInterface (Partial model transporting fluid between two ports without storing mass or energy).

Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Subsystems.HeatPump

Information

This model represents a water-to-water heat pump, an evaporator water pump, and an optional condenser water pump if have_pumCon is set to true. The heat pump model is described in Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.Carnot_TCon. By default variable speed pumps are considered. Constant speed pumps may also be represented by setting have_varFloEva and have_varFloCon to false.

Model for mass flow rate redirection with three-port two-position directional valves

Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Subsystems.SwitchBox

Information

This model represents a hydronic arrangement avoid flow reversal in the service line, for instance when connecting an energy transfer station such as the one modeled in Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.HeatPumpHeatExchanger. For that intent, two three-port two-position directional valves are used. The valves are actuated based on the logic described in Buildings.Experimental.DHC.EnergyTransferStations.Combined.Generation5.Controls.SwitchBox.
