manuals for Trace 600 (all hard copies), but CDS no longer appears to
support Trace 600 (the last DOS version of Trace). I've not been able to
locate online documentation at this point. If you can import the
file into Trace 700, you can simulate VSD CT's very easily in the cooling
plant section.</FONT></SPAN></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->

TRACE 600. I am trying to model a variable speed cooling tower. I
see an option for a 2-speed tower but that is it. I can also increase the
number of cells but that does not capture the VFD
savings.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
