Available thermal charging output calculator

Only production left after simultaneous cooling loads can charge the tank.

Units

Q_{\text{charge}} = \max\left(Q_{\text{chiller}} - L_{\text{live}},\ 0\right)

Calculator

Enter the values you know and leave one box empty. Calculate finds the empty one, the result or any input.

Given

Q_{\text{charge}} = \max\left(220 - 70,\ 0\right) = 150

Symbol	Meaning	Unit
$Q_{\text{charge}}$	output available to charge storage	ton
$Q_{\text{chiller}}$	chiller output during charging	ton
$L_{\text{live}}$	simultaneous live cooling load	ton

Symbol	Meaning	Unit
$Q_{\text{charge}}$	output available to charge storage	kW
$Q_{\text{chiller}}$	chiller output during charging	kW
$L_{\text{live}}$	simultaneous live cooling load	kW

Results are estimates for study and screening. Check the inputs, units and assumptions before you use them for design, billing or contract decisions.
