This sounds like Trane's Central Geothermal System, also called a cascading
system. Look up Trane sys-apm009-en. I know there is a way to model it in
trane trace, if you read through the trace instruction, you may be able to
use a similar approach in equest.

Subject: [Equest-users] CHW/HW Reversible Chillers & GLHX
Trying to model a reversible chiller scenario. Any help is appreciated.
Will have (2) chillers - 1 dedicated for a CHW loop on load side and the
other for a HW loop on the load side. The chillers will be piped into a
vertical well ground loop for the condenser side.
The CHW loop will serve a few small CHW coils in single zone AHUs.
The HW loop will serve the HW coils in the same AHUs, but also a HW radiant
slab heating system and several heat recovery units (heating only). The HW
chiller is meant to serve as a preheater to the HW loop as the temp will
peter out at 130 (max), while any remaining heat would be provided by a set
of condensing boilers that will maintain the HW loop at 150.
I've set up a loop to loop heat pump with the condenser loop to the lake/well
option, attached to the CHW loop and attached to the HW loop. It runs with
fatal errors and brings me back to the input screens.
Thoughts?
