Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Connectiong two AirLoops to the same zone



If you can't find appropriate zone equipment to substitute for one of your airloops, you can also try to put all of your airloop equipment onto one airloop with two outlets.  Airloops are the only type of loop which are allowed to have more than one outlet node.  Some example files to look at are the dual duct examples.

The solution is to use 1 air loop and 1 zone equipment.

I have also heard that you can trick the simulation by splitting each zone, serving each split zone with a separate air loop, and then using cross-mixing objects with high flow rates to mix the split zones. I have not tried this, but it sounds interesting.

Hello,

I have txo separated AirLoop, one for the mechanichal ventilation, another for the Cooling. My problem is that I want to connect this Loops to one single zone, but there is only one Zone Return Air Node Name. And in fact, if i use this Return Air Node as the Zone Eqipment Outlet Node for both AirLoops, I have a severe error.

I tried using the exhaust node but I can't manage to connect it to the Airloop.

Thanks in advance.
