In summary, optimizing chiller use in a building for maximum energy efficiency involves implementing various strategies such as using variable speed drives, performing regular maintenance and cleaning, and adjusting chiller settings based on occupancy and weather conditions. Utilizing these methods can significantly reduce energy consumption and costs while still effectively cooling the building. Additionally, utilizing advanced technologies such as chiller plant optimization software can further improve energy efficiency and provide real-time monitoring and control of the chiller system. Regular monitoring and data analysis can also help identify areas for improvement and optimize chiller use for maximum efficiency.

Hi guys.

I am a grad student studying Building energy related to HVAC.

I need some help to do the math to optimize the chiller use in a building.

Thanks!

Welcome to PF. :smile:

Start a new thread in the ME forum with your HVAC questions, and likely @russ_watters and others will be able to help you out.

If it's more of a schoolwork/homework type question, post in the Homework Help forums, and show as much work as you can.

Enjoy the PF!
