Variable speed DX cooling coil

Extends from Buildings.Fluid.DXSystems.Cooling.BaseClasses.PartialDXCoolingCoil.

Information

This model can be used to simulate an air source DX cooling coil with continuously variable speed compressors. The control input is the speed ratio. The coil will switch off if the speed ratio is below a minimum value.

See Buildings.Fluid.DXSystems.Cooling.UsersGuide for an explanation of the model.
