ShareMeasured energy consumption of variable-air-volume fans under inlet vane and variable-speed-drive control.
Author(s) : LORENZETTI D. M., NORFORD L. K.
Summary
Variable-speed drives are a popular retrofit for variable-air-volume ventilation fans, yet few measurements of annual energy savings have been performed. In the paper, fan power is modeled as a function of outside temperature only for four variable-air-volume systems outfitted with variable-speed drive controllers. The curves developed are used to estimate the savings of variable-speed drives over variable inlet vanes in the same air handlers.
