Commercial Buildings consume massive amounts of Energy Electricity = 74% of the energy consumed by commercial buildings (source: US DOE, 2008 Building Energy Data Book) Half of electricity consumed by buildings is used to move air More than half of the worlds energy is consumed by pumps and fans Buildings Consume Massive Amounts of Energy An electric motor is a fixed-speed machine
(VFDs) significantly reduce electrical consumption Most pump and fan systems are oversized to account for maximum loads Capacity usually exceeds demand Application of VFDs converts systems to variable flow Green House Gas Reduction 80% of commercial building CO2 emission due to electricity consumption VFDs Greatly Reduce Electricity Use VFDs provide the ability to vary the speed of a motor
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Motor + V1 V3 V5 3 ~ C V2 V4 V6 - Rectifier DC- circuit Inverter unit What Does a VFD do? Power Supply
Why Do It? Less Energy = Greater Savings Affinity laws Express relationship between rotational speed and flow, pressure and power Flow is directly proportional to speed Pressure is proportional to the square of speed Power is proportional to the cube of speed % Power Savings = (%Speed Reduction)3
Why Do It? Less Energy = Greater Savings % Power Savings = (%Speed Reduction)3
