Is this needed to do in Open Studio or EP Launch? Because I am using this first time then I have no idea to use this. In open studio, LoadProfile:Plant is not available in objects. If I want to use EP launch how to do it? |

If I already know the load shape and don't want to model the buildings explicitly, I am going to use LoadProfile:Plant to simulate the building loads as you proposed.

Aim of the study is sizing appropriate district cooling system to supply the cooling demand of the large commercial buildings in Colombo North. This is going to implement in the near future. Cooling is to provide multiple building in several locations. currently these buildings are running with individual water cool central air conditioning system. I only know operating capacities (percentage of chiller capacity) of the chillers during night time and day time, pumps and cooling towers' power and operating times of the chillers, pumps and cooling towers. |

I have only chiller capacities and operating details of hotels and offices. There are hotels and offices on two sides of proposed location for the district cooling plant. Please help to model this.
