[bldg-sim] Insect screens on restricting flow

[Ian Doebber]

I'm concerned about insect screens affecting the buoyancy driven airflow for a double skin façade.  I was wondering if anyone new of some papers that have covered the airflow properties of insect screens or can give me some information off hand.  I'm also wondering how to incorporate their effects on the flow by use of discharge coefficients and pressure loss coefficients. 

Thanks
