Yes, it appears to be part of the SI edition that hasn't been fully
converted from IP.

For System 7 (I haven't done a system 1 or 2), I used the SI calc and found
that it matched the fan power of a VAV system in E+ with 1300Pa pressure
drop and about 70% fan efficiency. You just have to do half of the calc in
IP units!

The IP version is correct.
