    Evaporator Fan Heat Load



    How can we find out evap fan heat load? Is it the total kWe of fans that is added directly to the total load or its the % of total load that is added after finding to final load?

    In case of VSD fans, how this load would vary or be considered?

    regards

    As nike123 said go for the drawn power, or else the rated full load amps of motor, to have a safety margin built in.

    Thanks Nike123 & Magoo. Do you mean -
    kWr = Motor kWe x No. of motors x No. of running hrs ??

    If above is correct, how about the efficiency of motors? Should this be considered at all?
