modelRefrigerantCycleHeatRecovery

Refrigerant cycle model for cooling-only or heat recovery chiller models

Extends from Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.ModularReversible.BaseClasses.PartialModularRefrigerantCycle.

Information

This is the refrigerant cycle model used in Buildings.Fluid.Chillers.ModularReversible.TableData2DLoadDep.

In contrast to Buildings.Fluid.Chillers.ModularReversible.BaseClasses.RefrigerantCycle, this model includes a unique component that can be configured to either represent a cooling-only chiller (have_switchover=false) or a heat recovery chiller (have_switchover=true). A unique performance data file is required, providing the maximum cooling heat flow rate and power, regardless of the setting for have_switchover.
