RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Ventilation



Dear Carmen,

For a fast analysis you can define the atrium as a conditioned zone to your
reference temperature and then use a "mixing" object to define the
ventilation for your real conditioned zone.

Of course, Richard's answer seems better.

Good luck,

Miguel Angel Pascual

Asunto: [EnergyPlus_Support] Ventilation

Hello all,

I have a problem. I am simulating a comercial building
just to get cooling loads, so using purchased air.
This building is placed inside an atrium which indoor
air is maintaned at 25-26 ºC all year by an air system
i am not interested in. So, I have used other side
coefficient to indicate energyplus that my exterior
walls (except one) have a constant exterior air
temperature and film coefficient. But my problem is
that I need to define ventilation flow rates for my
zones, and this ventilation air is taken from the
surrounding environmet, so it is always air at 25-26
ºC. I don´t know how to define it since i am running a
whole year simulation with the Madrid weather file
(the building has got one facade facing outside
environment), so I presume the system is taking the
air at Madrid exterior temperature each time step,
which is not the real behaviour.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot. 

Carmen.
