.Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.ModularReversible.RefrigerantCycle.BaseClasses.Validation.TableData2DLoadDepSHCVariable

Information

This model validates the load calculation and staging logic of the block Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.ModularReversible.RefrigerantCycle.BaseClasses.TableData2DLoadDepSHC.

The model represents a three-module system. The operating mode switches between simultaneous heating and cooling, heating only, and cooling only. The on/off command starts as true and is switched to false at the end of the simulated period.

The validation is carried out by computing the tracked temperature using the heat flow rate calculated by the block, and feeding back this variable as input to the heat pump model. It is then expected that the tracked temperature matches the setpoint, under the constraints of step-by-step staging and minimum stage runtime. Note that a filtered value of the tracked temperature is used to avoid creating an algebraic loop.
