NC-2009 EAp2: Minimum Energy Performance
Based on ASHRAE 90.1, the chilled water pumping power must be 22 W/gpm and does not mentioned the effect of pumping head. the majority of projects that I am working on them, the proposed pumping power is higher than 22 W/gpm because of the head.
How can I solve this issue or how can I design the baseline chilled water pumps based on flow and head?
