Sherif:
EnergyPlus may allow you to do what you want
indirectly. The AirflowNetwork model in EnergyPlus has an option to open windows
based on the availability schedule, called Venting Availability
Schedule. The schedule allows hourly inputs. Each window can have its own
schedule. You can specify schedules based on weather wind speed and
direction. Please let me know if you want more information.
Best regards,
Lixing

Hi,
I'm trying to model a single zone space with two wind stacks
These stacks contains 4 windows for 4-directions
Using E+, is there an opportunity where I can control the operation of those openings according to wind speed, direction or airflow? in otherword, is there a way to maintain one stack as a wind-scoop (by opening windward windows and closing the others) and the other as a wind-chimney (by opening leeward windows and closing the others) with all the variation in wind direction during the simulation period?
Could you please help?
Kind regards,
Sherif
