Thermal storage setup and schedule

I am setting up a chilled water tank in series with chiller as explained in the Plant Application guide . The documentation suggests I need to have CoolingsystPlantloop setpoint manager and schedule type to be 'temperature.' How and what schedules and setpoint manager can be set in Open studio image description to be set as in EP image description

Thermal storage setup and schedule

  1. I am setting up a chilled water tank in series with chiller as explained in the Plant Application guide . The documentation suggests I need to have CoolingsystPlantloop setpoint manager and schedule type to be 'temperature.' How and what schedules and setpoint manager can be set in Open studio image description to be set as in EP image description

  2. How do I request specific output variable like these in Openstudio? Output:Variable,,Chilled Water Thermal Storage Tank Temperature,hourly; !- HVAC Average [C] Output:Variable,,Chilled Water Thermal Storage Final Tank Temperature,hourly; !- HVAC Average [C] Output:Variable,,Chilled Water Thermal Storage Tank Heat Gain Rate,hourly; !- HVAC Average [W] Output:Variable,,Chilled Water Thermal Storage Source Side Heat Transfer Energy,hourly; !- HVAC Sum [J] Output:Variable,*,Chilled Water Thermal Storage Temperature Node 1,hourly; !- HVAC Average [C]
