<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">You can’t take a prescribed IPLV of, say, 13.0 and turn that into knowledge of what efficiency your chiller should reflect at 100% or 75% loading conditions.  Even if an ASHRAE
 standard or a manufacturer publishes those part load factors, you still are going to have conditions in reality (and your simulations) where it isn’t always 65 degrees outside while you’re 50% loaded (for example)… the major message/takeaway here is that IPLV
 was made to marry manufacturers and laboratory conditions, to the general benefit of specifiers and prescriptive standards, not for us in the simulation world.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">That’s not to say IPLV can’t be made useful...  Someone could (if so inclined) built a “AHRI chiller test bed” model to try and replicate AHRI lab conditions for your simulated
 chiller.  Custom hourly reports alongside a weather file coving the full range of AHRI conditions to “backtrack” the effective IPLV of a simulated chiller to see how closely the selected library or your own custom curves come to replicating the IPLV prescribed/tested. 
 If I had such a “test bed” model on-hand I’d share it with the community here, but I haven’t invested time to pursue that concept to completion yet.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 came with v3.65 b7163 anyway)… they might match exactly elsewhere… has anyone done the legwork to assess what equipment/research was used to develop those curves in relation to the eQUEST curve library?  They might be generally preferable as a default if they’re
