[EnergyPlus_Support] Re:Controller:MechanicalVentilation



You can try at Controller:MechanicalVentilation object:

1. Set field 'Zone Outdoor Air Method' to Maximum and set cfm/ft2 to 0 
for zones.

2. Set field 'System Outdoor Air Method' to ZoneSum as you indicated. 
You can ignore zone distribution effectiveness and system ventilation 
efficiency inputs.

Unfortunately you have to enter outdoor air rates at the 
Controller:MechanicalVentilation object in order to model DCV. Currently 
the outdoor air rates in the autosizing calculations are different from 
the annual simulations for DCV. A plan is in place to consolidate these 
inputs for both objects.
