Decouple gain for distribution and ghx mass flow rates #600

Closed nllong closed 9 months ago

nllong commented 9 months ago

Any background context you want to provide?

The mass flow rate of the GHX was set to the same gain as the distribution mass flow rate. This caused a very large GHX mass flow rate (and resulting energy consumption) due to the GHX pump running at a very high rate, continuously.

Secondly, the facMul was set to 10, which I think is not needed.

What does this PR accomplish?

How should this be manually tested?

Unit tests should run!

What are the relevant tickets?
