[EnergyPlus_Support] Fwd: RoomAir model

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

Hi.
I'm reposting this in the hope of getting some experience-based 
insight into the appropriate AirRoom models to use when the inner 
heights are high (5-6m) or the main aspects to take into account in 
order to make that selection.

Regards,
Ana Rui.

Hello, All.

When modelling zones with a useful height of 5m or 6m (or higher), 
the "Well mixed" room air model is still an acceptable approximation?

The "Displacement ventilation" model shouldn't be used if insufflated 
air is not introduced at approximately ground level?

If using "Displacement ventilation" model, are there any intervals 
(too 
high or too low) of the calculated transition height that indicate 
that 
this model is not appropriate for the current situation? Similarly, 
is 
there any relation between the height of temperature sensors and 
transition height that makes this model inadequate?

Thanks in advance,
Ana Rui.
