Description
Fan selection has largely become an automated process that matches system flow and pressure requirements to a pool of candidate fans. It is intuitive that the most energy-efficient fan is the selection having the lowest power consumption. But trade-offs between first cost and power consumption often drive selections to the smallest fan, rather than to the most efficient. Energy codes and regulatory agencies are introducing new requirements that will force greater emphasis on operating costs and push fan selections toward peak efficiency.
