color:#1F497D'>The cooling load is 24/7 and is located in an interior zone of a
building located in a cold climate, so there are simultaneous heating and
cooling periods. What I&#8217;m hoping to create is a system that will act much
like a boiler, in that whenever the HW loop needs heat, the HTREC chiller runs
and provides heat while cooling the chilled water loop. I added the HTREC
chiller because it&#8217;s supposed to be able to supply higher condensing
water temperatures (which I need for my HW loops) than my other boilers are.
The DOE2.2 documentation leads me to believe that this chiller would
automatically sequence on whenever there is a heating load on the loop, but
this doesn&#8217;t seem to be the case. Even if I delete the HTREC chiller and make
my other three chillers recover heat to the HW loop, none of them do. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

economizer. There is more than sufficient heat for heat recovery (cooling load&gt;&gt;heating
load), so I still need an economizer, although I want it to be secondary. I don&#8217;t
know if I can sequence that. My guess now after thinking about it is that the
system is economizing whenever there is a heating load, so the chillers don&#8217;t
sequence on. Is there a way to make the chillers run if there is a load on the
HW loop, but economize the remainder?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Hi Eric,<br>
Are you sure your heating load is simultaneous with the cooling load (is not
enough to have cooling load all the year arround if it does not coincidence in
time with the heating load: Chiller off)?. Also, did you check that when there
is heating load the Htrc chiller is scheduled before than the other 3 chillers
you have? Otherwise would be impossible to recover heat. What about those coils
you have on the condensing loop? Aren't they taking away the heat you want to
recover from the condenser?<br>
