CS-2009 EAp2: Minimum Energy Performance
Hello,
I'm working in a C&S project where I have a partial desing of Air conditioned. The owner will give cold water and outdoor air in each tenant space. The desing has supply outdoor air fans completly designed but the tenant must install the interior unit (Fan coil or air handler), therefore, I don't have the desing of the interior units.
How should I simulate the Fan power in the proposed model?
Thanks for you advice.

Identical to the Baseline is the simple answer.
If your baseline is chilled water then it is straight forward. If your baseline is DX I would use the DES guidance for the baseline system selection.

Hi Marcus,
I am in the same situation, I am in a conflict about how to model the VAV systems in each floor and the supply outdoor air fan designed.
VAV system supply outdoor air in the baseline, but my proposed will be supplied by fans, that are just a big one.
My question is How do i need to model the supplied outdoor air?
thank you
