[TRNSYS-users] Air Mass Flow Rate Dependent Fan

Most fan models take a rated flow rate as a parameter and a control 
signal as an input. These two values are multiplied together to set the 
fan outlet flow rate. In a way, this is the same as giving the fan an 
inlet variable mass flow rate provided that you have chosen a variable 
speed fan model where the control signal can vary between 0 and 1. There 
is a fan model in the TESS Hydronics library (Type744) where you truly 
do set the inlet mass flow rate directly as an input to the model.

kind regards,

  David
