[EnergyPlus_Support] ATUs - Insufflated vs. Exhaust Air flows

["anarui.oliveira" <anarui.oliveira@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

The parameters for ATU, such as those cretated by
- Compact HVAC:Zone:VAV,
- Compact HVAC:System:VAV,
only allow the user to define the insufflated air flows (Supply air 
flow), right?

What does the simulation assume, in this case, for the exhaust air 
flows, and how does it deal with the corresponding effect on the 
inside pressures?

If the case to model has different insufflated and exhaust flows, how 
does it affect my model? Wow can I implement this in E+?

And if a certain zone only has forced exhaust flow, and the inlet 
flow is assumed to be drawn from adjacent areas by pressure 
difference?

Thanks in advanced.

Best regards,
Ana Rui.
