[Bldg-sim] Modelling of ceiling fan

[Hisham Ahmad]

Hi,

We recently modeled the effect of ceiling fans by estimating the airflow
(based on rpm, diameter & manufacturer data etc) that the fan would create
and corelating it with the guidelines of ASHRAE 55 for increased airflow.
We used a higher cooling set point to compute the energy savings for fans
following the exact methodology as pointed out by Mr Moore in this thread. The
fan power was added to the model as an equipment load. However, this was
done in DOE2.
