systems. Discuss the benefits and concerns related to
each of these key differences.

ADVANTAGES
1. Permits operating at highest allowable zone temperature
2. Maximizes coil flow rate, good film coefficients
3. Maximizes flow rate through each control valve
4. Ensures good humidity control
5. Minimizes the amount of coil reheat
DISADVANTAGES
1. Temperature of return water is unknown
2. Temperature of return water to chiller may be too high
3. Will not recognize increased supply water temperature
No single sensor location
satisfies all design criteria

Control Algorithm
1. Temperature control to the zone (T1 sensing).
2. If T1 is satisfied, return water temperature to the chiller
plant (T2 sensing).
3. Monitor secondary chilled water supply temperature
(T3 sensing) for temperature increase due to secondary
return water recirculation or temperature decrease due to
chiller leaving water temperature reset.
4. Reference point for automatic reset and T (T2 - T3)
control (T3 sensing).

Alternative #2
• Minimum flow bypass valve is controlled
to protect both the pumps and the
chillers.
– Pump requires >25% BEP flow
– Minimum flow of largest chiller
• Size the bypass valve using the zone
p.
• Best for systems with extended light
loads or weekend shut-down.

• What’s the set point?
– It’s the greatest branch and distribution

Summary
• Give priority to the needs of the branch.
• The rule of sensor location is simple and easy
to apply:
– If you have to use a single sensor, put it across
the critical branch.
– What’s the “critical branch”?
– It’s the same one that determined the pump head.
• As we’ve seen, the analysis is more important
than the “rule”.
