Create Process Loads_2019
This option opens the Tabular Space Data to create the process loads in a project as below
By default, 6 different process loads are created (but not assigned) in a project. These can be seen in the list of space process loads as shown above. A user can assign and edit these process loads or add additional process loads.
To add additional process loads, a user is required to “Add Space Process Loads” from the actions tab highlighted above.
Process loads in each space utilizes the following inputs:
- Process Name: User-defined input for Process load
- Process Type (dropdown): Type of process load. Options include: Process Electric, Process Gas, Refrigeration, Gas Equipment, Elevators & Escalators (Description provided in next section)
- Multiplier: Multiplier applied to specific process load.
- Variation Profile: Equipment schedule reference
- Power: The total installed power consumed by the process load
- Radiant Fraction: The fraction of radiant heat gain to a space based on appliance energy use. Fraction convective (sensible) is typically equal to 1.0 minus fraction radiant, minus fraction latent, minus fraction lost
- Latent Gain: The fraction of latent heat gain to a space based on appliance energy use. Fraction convective (sensible) is typically equal to 1.0 minus fraction radiant minus fraction latent, minus fraction lost
- Lost Fraction: The fraction of heat lost to the exterior is based on appliance energy use
