RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Use case for Fan:ZoneExhaust




ZoneVentilation is modeled as a building load rather than a system.  The only system energy effect is temperature rise due to fan and that depends on setting for INTAKE vs EXHAUST.



Fan energy does get reported and metered.  The regular output variable is ?Zone Ventilation Fan Electric Consumption? and this gets metered as ?building? ?electricity,? and the end use is ?Fans.?    It appears there is no output in watts, so you might want to convert from energy to check the power level.

This is actually the easiest solution it seems to model direct ventilation. What is the system energy effect though? It doesn?t seem that the fans are part of the reports, however there is fan energy. Can you meter the ZoneVentilation object for fan electrical use?
