In the OutputDetailsAndExamples.pdf, under the section on eplustbl.<ext>, the Annual Building Performance Summary is described and includes the following:
"The values in the End Uses sub-table
are from report meters. To determine
which components are attached to each
end-use meter, consult the meter
details output file (*.mtd)."
And when you look in the file for your simulation with the extension ".mtd" (which is also described in the OutputDetailsAndExamples.pdf and here).
That file contains two types of lists:
- first are lists that show for a specific output variable what meters are they collected under
- later are lists that show for a specific meter what output variables are included.
This second type of list will help you answer your question by searching for the word "fan" you will find a list:
- For Meter=Fans:Electricity [J], ResourceType=Electricity, EndUse=Fans, contents are:
and under that will indicate every output variable that is included there. In general, it is going to be all the fans in your building. The individual fan output variables are generally described in the InputOutputReference.pdf. For most models, the outdoor condenser fan is not included in the fan energy. Fan energy is generally the supply and return fans and other fans intended for the movement of air inside the building. For DX systems, the condenser fan is never included in the ABUPS table for electric fan energy use.
