Static Pressure reset 9in eQuest

I have tried reducing the VAV min setting from 60% to 30%. This gets me space cooling and pumping savings, but increases fan energy.
Any idea how to simulate a fan energy reduction?

For static pressure reset we typically model the fan performance curves in
the PNNL PRM RM

.

There's also an appendix in the Advanced VAV design guide with curves you
can use to represent different levels of reset.

Hello John,
Please refer to appendix 5 in the attached file. It gives the fan curve coefficients for different static pressure values.
I hope this will help.
