[Bldg-sim] Displacement ventilation in Chapter 11

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to model a displacement ventilation system in a large 30 ft
high space. I have broken up the space into three stacked zones. The
displacement ventilation system is set up to condition the occupied zone
only (bottom 10 ft) with the return located at the top of the space. The
stack effect takes care of the top 20ft.

I wondering if this could be considered as a special strategy and the
base case under chapter 11 should be modelled as a simple system as per
the budget system descriptions. Chapter 11 does not specifically talk
about the displacement ventilation system but the zoning break up
however is required to be the same in the design case and the ECB. Does
any one have any experience with such a situation? Please help.

Thanks
