Sorry for a mistake in my previous E-mail. My intent is that the
AirflowNetwork model may not be good to predict airflows in zones divided by
artificial vertical surfaces.

It is possible. However, the AirflowNetwork model may be good to predict
airflows in zones divided by artificial vertical surfaces. It is better to
use a CFD tool.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] AirflowNetwork and dividing a large open
office to multiple zones
There is a model in EnergyPlus that I must work on, in that a large open
office is divided into some subzones, with the expectation that the airflow
network simulates the air flow through the internal openings.
I have read in the Input-Output reference that "you should not try to divide
a high space, such as an atrium, into subzones separated by artificial
horizontal surfaces that have cracks or openings with the expectation that
AirflowNetwork will give you a realistic temperature in each subzone and/or
a realistic air flow between subzones"
Now, I would like to know if it is acceptable in a large office, to be
divided with some artificial vertical surfaces, with the expectation that
EnergyPlus can predict air temperature in different part of the large zone.
