Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Flow Through Zones

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

A couple of other options to consider:

1. Combine the two receiving zones into a single thermal zone, so 
they can be a plenum.  Consider whether they really need to be 
separate zones in the big picture of your model.

2. Split the supply zone into two zones so that each one can feed a 
single return plenum zone.
