[Equest-users] dose fan consume the right energy?

[Bishop, Bill]

Aaron,
 
One thing I notice is that you have roof surfaces on many of your
interior spaces. This is modeling heat transfer to/from the exterior
where it does not exist. Remove these and I'm guessing your cooling
energy, pump energy and fan energy will all change.
 
Regards,
Bill

Dear all 
         I am simulating a super-high rise building of 300m, the HVAC is
VAV with Elec reheat.  The energy consumption for proposed is shown as
below. The results shows that the fans consumes 15% of the total energy
while the pump takes only 2%, and I'm doubting it.
         Is the results reasonable? Could anyone tell me the reason?
         Attached is the inp and pd2 files.
         Thanks a lot
                                                     aaron
