Fan

Fans move air.

Fans can either be:

  • Components of a larger entity (AHU, VAV, Cooling Tower, etc)
  • Stand-alone components (Return Fan, Exhaust Fan, etc)

At this time we are not validating against this distinction, but we will do in future.

Fans may also have an associated VFD. A VFD is related to the Fan through a brick:isPartOf relationship (see VFD.md)

Variations

Nil. There will be variations in a future version.


Composition

Core

Nil.

Fans may have an associated VFD through a brick:isPartOf relationship (see VFD.md), however this is validated as part of the VFD shapes.

If there is a requirement for a root equipment (i.e. AHU, Cooling Tower, etc) to have a Fan with a VFD then this would be validated as part of the root equipment shapes.
