Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.Validation
Collection of models that validate the Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled package
Information
This package contains validation models for the classes in Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.
Note that most validation models contain simple input data which may not be realistic, but for which the correct output can be obtained through an analytic solution. The examples plot various outputs, which have been verified against these solutions. These model outputs are stored as reference data and used for continuous validation whenever models in the library change.

Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.Validation.CoolingCoilHumidifyingHeating_ClosedLoop
Model of a air handling unit that tests temperature and humidity control
Information
This model demonstrates the use of Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.CoolingCoilHumidifyingHeating. The valve on the water-side and the electric heater on the air-side is regulated to track a setpoint temperature for the air outlet based on the step changes in the inlet temperature on the waterside. The humidifier on the air-side is manipulated to control the humidity of the air outlet.
To avoid simultenous cooling (by opening the valve on the water side) and heating (by turning on the heater), a built-in controller is used to turn the reheater on and off. The detailed control logic can be found in Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Controls.Reheat. A setting for this example is shown as following:
-
The switch point for the valve position,
yValSwiis set asyValSwi=yValMin + 0.1, and a deadband0.05is used. -
The switch point for the difference between the inlet temperature of
the reheater and the required outlet temperature setpoint,
dTSwiis set to 0, and deaband temperature difference 0.5 Kelvin is used.

Integrated WSE on the load side in a primary-only chilled water system
Information
This example demonstrates how the model responses according to different cooling mode signals (free cooling mode, partially mechanical cooling and fully mechanical cooling).
The reponses are also compared with a second case where the PI controller in the WSE is reset every 1800s.

Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.ChillerCooled.Equipment.Validation.PumpParallel
Example that tests the model pump parallels
Information
This example demonstrates the use of the flow model with two different configurations. At steady-state, all flow models have the same mass flow rate and pressure difference.
Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).
