[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Outside Air Mixing Box



Ok this is clear, this way I dont get recirculation air, but then
suppose I want to change the outside air flow, so I define a min OA
schedule, to simulate a mechanical ventilation system with 3 different
flow rates (variable speed fan). So when I do this then what happens
is that when the Outside air is decreased the recirculation damper
lets the return air mix with this Outside air so that that the fan
always supplies with the rated volumetric flow. I would like to see
that the flow coming out of the supply fan is also changing as the
incoming outside air, with no recirculation at all.
The fan is defined as a variable speed fan with different minimum and
maximum flow rates. 

Best Regards,
Santiago
