[EnergyPlus_Support] zone multiplier

[kir kumar <kirank209@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,
       I simulated a huge building with seven floors . Each floor has two zones. I used zone multiplier to multiply my middle floor by 5 times.Do I need to divide every resulting value for middle floor by 5 in order to attain a value just for a typical middle floor?
     
       For example Do I need to divide the resulting cooling loads of  middle floor by 5, to get the cooling load of typical middle floor?. Also do I need to divide the resulting value by 5 in order to get the middle floor window heat gain?
   
       How about infiltration? Do I need to input infiltration values just for a typical middle floor assuming that E+ automatically multiplies the given infiltration value by 5 times. or Do I need to input an infiltration value five times that of a typical middle floor?
   Can any one help me answere my questions?
  thanks in advance
  kiran
