Gregg,
Is there guidance on what portion of the Pfan goes to each? What percentage goes to supply, what percentage to return, etc?

No, you use only the fan supply cfm to calculate the total fan power, then cut that fan power up into supply, return, etc.

Hello All,
I am trying to understand the stated appendix for the baseline model. 
When I am calculating the Pfan for a system, do I need add up supply, return, system and room exhaust cfm’s? 
I got this comment from GBCI: “Revise the sum of the supply, return, exhaust, and relief fans for each HVAC system to be equal to the volume calculated in G3.1.2.8 and power calculated in G3.1.2.9 (where CFM refers to supply air volume).” 

Please let me know your input on how to calculate Pfan.

Thanks,
