Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Alternate Modeling Processes

Hi Linda,
   
  On page 304 of the Engineering Manual, where UCSD Displacement Ventilation is discussed, there is an expression for the total vertical airflow for a given height when multiple (n) plumes are present.  They have n^(1/3) along with the buoyancy flux which is B^(1/3).  I agree with B^(1/3) but I wonder if n should just be n and not n^(1/3).  
   
  Thanks for your help.  (I hope this makes sense.)
