Schools-2009 EAp2:Minimum Energy Performance
The school I am modeling has a vrf system served by dedicated outdoor air energy recovery units as well as packaged rooftop units. When creating the cooling and heating plants in the model I have run into a limitation of trane trace. It only allows 20 plans of each heating and cooling. What are the restrictions if any on combining cooling plants in order to model the entire system?
