Hi, I have some problems using the EnergyPlus to simulate natural ventilation. During my simulation I used the TEMPERATURE as Ventilation Control Mode. So, my building will be ventilated if: Tzone>Tout and Tzone>Tsetpoint and If Venting Availability Schedule permits. I analyzed the outputs (Outdoor Dry Bulb/Opening Factor Multiplier for Venting Modulation/Zone Operative Temperature) and I noticed that during some hours the natural ventilation is being used in a wrong away. For example: 02/27 the Tzone<Tout but the ventilation is used. I attached an excel file that shows it. I am using the Florianopolis weather file (TRY1963.epw). Do you know what is happening? Thanks for all, Ana Paula. |
