RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] fan motor efficiency

[YuanLu Li <yli006@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Pablo
 
I saw you question being answered.
 
There are many template groups.
 

For fan coil systems with boilers and chillers:

HVACTemplate:Thermostat
HVACTemplate:Zone:FanCoil
HVACTemplate:Plant:ChilledWaterLoop
HVACTemplate:Plant:HotWaterLoop
HVACTemplate:Plant:Chiller HVACTemplate:Plant:Boiler
HVACTemplate:Plant:Tower 

---

You must have chosen one  from this group.

 

Within this group there are four types:  Thermostat, Zone,  Plant.

 

The fan for the chiller and condenser will show in the expidf.  You can go there find the fan object and change any parameters, such as, efficiency, to what you want.  There are curves to define efficiency as wel,l with variable speed pumps and fans..

 

Zone : fanCoil, has fan and water coils.

 

The answer should be:  all the fans have its own object when expanded in the expidf and may have different efficiency value.

It is for the indoor coil fan.  For heat pumps the indoor coil can be the evaporator or condenser depending on the mode of operation, i.e., cooling or heating.

Hi,

in the class hvac templates, when defining the object supply fan motor efficiency, is for the motor of the condensing unit or evaporator unit?
