Air Handling Unit energy flow Pre-filter Secondary-filter Intake Air Frost coil Supply Air Damper Heating coil Cooling coil FAN MOTOR Gas-filter (Carbon) Attenuator OUTSIDE INSIDE Electrical Energy input via motor 10. Clean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutions Air Filter - Energy Equation Clean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutions Calculations reveal that energy normally accounts for 70% of the total life cycle cost of the system. The energy consumption is directly proportional to the average pressure drop over the filter. Energy (E) = [(Q x P x T)/( x Co)] . Pc Q: Air flow, m3/s P: Average filter pressure loss, Pa T: Operation time, hr : Fan efficiency, % Pc: Cost of Power, p/kWh Co: Constant, 1000 in SI units 11.
