DHWLOOPPUMP

DHWLOOPPUMP constructs an object representing a pump serving part a DHWLOOP. The model is identical to DHWPUMP except that that the electricity use calculation reflects wlRunF of the parent DHWLOOP.

wlpName

Optional name of pump; give after the word “DHWLOOPPUMP” if desired.

wlpMult

Type: integer

Number of identical pumps of this type. Any value \(>1\) is equivalent to repeated entry of the same DHWPUMP.

Units Legal Range Default Required Variability

wlpPwr

Type: float

Pump power.

wlpLiqHeatF

Type: float

Fraction of pump power that heats circulating liquid. The remainder is discarded.
