Per ASHRAE 90 G3.1.3.11: Each chiller shall be modeled with separate condenser water and chilled-water pumps interlocked to operate with the associated chiller. We have two chillers sized equally. Does this mean we have to model two cooling towers? Can we only have one big cooling tower for the two chillers. Thanks!
