Actually, the modeling can't really be done in DOE-2.1e, since this would involve a system for the exhaust fan and make-up air fan., with the savings from the exhausting of make-up air vs conditioned air. However, you could get some idea of the AC and heating savings by running it with and without the exhaust, and then calc the extra fan by 2x the fan difference....something like that.

Subject: [bldg-sim] LEED Kitchen Exhaust Fan Modeling
Hi all,
I’m trying to simulate a teaching kitchen in eQUEST. LEED Credit Interpretations Rulings have said that we can take credit for exhaust energy savings. We have modeled our hoods as variable volume exhausts and put them on a typical use schedule. ASHRAE 90.1 Section 6.3.7.1 only gives specifics for kitchen hoods over 5000 cfm (which we don’t have). Am I to assume that we can model the hoods as constant volume in our baseline model? The energy savings between the two seem somewhat unrealistic. Has anyone come across this situation and do you have advice?
Thanks,
Allison Rutter
