[Equest-users] built-in chiller curves vs. custom

[Christian Stalberg]

I have a 725 ton chiller with full load efficiency (primary efficiency =
.546 kw/ton) 

and part load efficiency (NPLV = .464 kw/ton). What are peoples experience
in 

choosing whether to utilize eQUEST's own built-in chiller curves versus
creating 

their own custom curves? Are there any rules of thumb as to when the later
is 

appropriate (because otherwise you are not getting the energy savings under

part load conditions)?

 

Thanks!
