only 1 chiller is used if autosizing chiller capacity

The cooling load of my project is 500 ton, I would like to use 2 chillers for my baseline case in OS1.7 so that each chiller is less than 300 ton. However, if I autosize the chiller, the part load ratio show that only 1 chiller will be used whose size is 500 ton. How should I change the control mode so that the load could distributed evenly to each chiller?
