Energy Supply Control Component for Chiller Mode by Friedrich Sick 1986 This component was written to handle the control of the energy supply for each mode of the Liquid Desiccant Cooling System that Sick studied. This component receives the system energy demands for cooling, heating, and electricity and distributes these loads to the gas and electricity supply according to the available equipment and to the desired control. Except for the Solar Mode, the model assumes that the loads can always be met through the supply of extra heat by a boiler and extra electricity by the power plant. Thus, no storage tank model needs to be included, although storage may be physically existent. Energy supplied to the system from the tank is assumed to be immediately replaced. This component is the energy supply control component for the Chiller Mode. For all the simulations, the cogenerator was modeled to convert one-third of its gas input into useful heat and one-third into electricity. The last third is lost to the surroundings. The boiler loses one-third of its input capacity to the indoor environment as well, while the remaining two-thirds are turned into useful heat. The component configuration and sample input and output values are included with the source code. REF: Sick, F.
