<body lang=EN-US link=blue vlink=purple>

<div class=Section1>

<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve got a fairly simple primary/secondary chilled
water system with a waterside economizer chiller.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve already got a secondary chilled water pump
circulating primary chilled water to the systems in my proposed building, and
it does double duty as pumping through the heat exchanger in my proposed
design.  So the chilled water pump that I’ve set up for the
waterside economizer (to regulate maximum flow) really has Zero power
consumption.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>However, when I set the KW to 0.00 for this pump, eQuest is
STILL auto-sizing something and forcing the KW to around 32 KW.  I even
set the efficiencies to 1.0 to see if that made a difference (doesn’t). 
I’m not sure if it has something to do with the warning about the pump
not being able to match system flow at the minimum required head…but why
can’t I force this KW to 0??<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone ever run into this?  Here’s a
screenshot of my input for that pump and the PV-A output.  Thanks in
advance!<o:p></o:p></p>
