Are you using the ZoneHVAC:RefrigerationChillerSet
to model this? This should be doable if that's the case.
If you're using a Refrigeration:CompressorRack
to model the compressors you may be able to use the Refrigeration:TransferLoadList
to connect the thermal storage to the walk-ins but I have not personally attempted this.
I would recommend using the ZoneHVAC:RefrigerationChillerSet
approach because EnergyPlus doesn't really account for the part-load performance of Refrigeration:CompressorRack
's to begin with :( Compressor rack performance is solely dependant on the discharge and suction temperatures.
