Testing and validation of simulation tools of HVAC mechanical equipment including their control strategies. Part II: validation of cooling and heating coil models

This paper presents detailed information about testing and validation of cooling and heating coil models. The work has been carried out under Subtask D of the International Energy Agency’s SHC Task 34/ECBCS Annex 43 (Testing and Validation of Building Energy Simulation Tools). The goal of this Subtask (Mechanical Equipment and Control Strategies) was to develop and test methods that would help evaluating, diagnosing and correcting HVAC mechanical equipment simulation software.
