Should the ASHRAE system 8 chiller be connected to the system 7 condenser in OpenStudio?

edit

It's not really an academic exercise, I'm doing LEED V4 certification for a restaurant inside the mall. LEED V4 uses ASHRAE 90.1-2010, for this reason I am using two systems

v4 CI for the restaurant or NC for the whole mall? In either case, if the mall is more than 150,000 sf and uses a gas heat source, then system 7 should be the baseline. Within the restaurant, you should check to see which zones are subject to G3.1.1 system exceptions. One or more zones (e.g. the part of the kitchen served by a MAU) are likely subject to exceptions b or d.

Both system 7 and 8 should have both CHW and CW loops. I'd first question why the OS System 8 does not have CHW/CW loop. Check this. If the kitchen is subject to G3.1.1 Exception d. the last sentence indicates that for all electric building the heating source shall be electric resistance (for the kitchen). If the rest of the building is System 8 (CHW + Elec Resistance) then the kitchen effectively becomes a psuedo System 8 as well (terminal unit typ is different for System 7 vs 8). Both System 7 and 8 can and should be on the same CHW loop. The CW loop serves the chillers on that CHW loop.

If the kitchen is subject to G3.1.1 Exception b. the System 3 or 4 should not have CHW / HW. Stand-alone System 3 or 4.

System 8 in OpenStudio has a CHW loop, but it doesn't have a CW loop, so my question is whether I should connect to the system 7 CW loop. Thanks for the answers.
