[Bldg-sim] DOAS and chilled beam/radiator

But LEED requires all the supply flow and HVAC equipment capacity strictly base on the actual design. So most of my projects I will simulate using the design parameters as possible as I can. 
According to DOE document, uisng UI system to simulate cooling beam, the suggested pressure drop is only 1.0~1.5 in. water. In fact the fresh air unit with wheel heat recovery will at least have a press drop about 1000Pa.
If I use the actual parameter, the fan energy very be huge. How do you deal with this situation? 
 
Best regards!

> Specific fan power (W/L/s) can be significantly higher that that for traditional systems as the process to create induction ratios depends on static pressure in the beam¡¯s chamber.
> This requires extra energy as the ACB does not just deliver OA to the room; it is supposed to entrain another 3-5 air volumes through heat exchanger....
> Unfortunately, manufacturers of the ACBs do no like to mention this fact when list ACB¡¯s advantages.

> 1. In my experience - active chilled beams typically operate at constant volume (set to the ventilation rate in the room) and you vary the cooling rate with a 3-way valve on the cooling coil to vary the cooling capacity of the beam.
> 
> 2. Different beam designs have different induction ratios ¨C I would look up the manufacturers data. The typical range is around 3-6.
> 
> 3. Yes ¨C you can simulate a WSE now ¨C you need to add a chiller and select waterside economizer as chiller type. Not sure why your example is not working ¨C if you attach an inp file I¡¯m sure someone can shed some light no that.

> The other one is the water economizer chiller in waterside system, but it seems the function is not matural, I tried , but the hourly report shows the chillers still running in the winter for very low cooling load.
