2022-09-19 11:54:09 -0500 | marked best answer | How can I model destratification fans? I am modeling a building with 20’ ceilings in an assembly area, where the design calls for destratification fans. How can I model the energy impact of the fans? I know they will result in increased miscellaneous load usage which I can calculate easily, but I want to estimate the HVAC energy savings to confirm that they will be worth the cost and increased energy usage. |
