<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To those of you who regularly and graciously contribute your knowledge to this site, we all owe you a huge debt of gratitude. Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am stumped. Usually, in my experience, following the standard Baseline process of establishing [ASHRAE max] fan power and applying that value to eQuest in kW/cfm, the resulting difference between Baseline and Proposed is evident but not
super big.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this case, on a small project with 6 x under 5-ton split HP systems, the Baseline fan energy use is, like, over 6 times bigger than the Proposed. I have exhausted every check and iteration I can think of and cannot find out why or how
this occurs. As-is, the energy savings is incredible on fan power alone and I know it is not right.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any thoughts or similar experiences with this circumstance? <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
