This information is located in Appendix G Section G3.1.3.7 through G3.1.3.10, which if you don’t have a copy of Appendix G, it is a must-have. It basically states for plants greater than 300 tons, you will have variable speed pumps on the secondary loop instead of the pumps riding the pump curve. You will also have 2 chillers for plants >300 tons. This is all stated in the Appendix G document. Hope this helps!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Matthew Larson, LEED AP BD+C<br></span></b><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Project Engineer<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Energy Solutions Group<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>E M C Engineers, Inc.<br>Eaton’s Electrical Services & Systems <br>143 Union Blvd, Suite 350<br>Lakewood, CO 80228<br>tel: +1 303 328-3419<br>mobile: +1 303 668-2511<br>fax: +1 303 974-1239<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><a href="mailto:MatthewRLarson@Eaton.com">MatthewRLarson@Eaton.com</a> <br><a href="http://www.eaton.com/energysolutions">www.eaton.com/energysolutions</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><img alt=image001 border=0 height=101 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.jpg@01CC35AB.93048B10" width=198></span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> equest-users-bounces@lists.onebuilding.org [mailto:equest-users-bounces@lists.onebuilding.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>javed iqbal<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, June 27, 2011 10:37 PM<br><b>To:</b> equest-users@lists.onebuilding.org<br><b>Subject:</b> [Equest-users] Chiller Baseline Methodology<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hi All,<br><br> I have found this guideline for Baseline Chiller Plant Modeling for capacity <300 TR.
