COP of District Cooling Component
I have recently run a simulation that used the DistrictCooling
component to model a Central Chiller that is external to the building.
However, after reading the Engineering Reference Manual and Input/Output Manual, I am unable to determine if the energy consumption calculated from the District Cooling component accounts for a COP. My assumption is that the energy values are just that required to satisfy the demand, without a COP. Is that the case?
I would like to know so that I don't discount the energy consumed again if a COP was accounted.
