It all depends on how precise is your statement.
If you want to physically install an exhaust fan in each zone, it is possible. The question is where is the zone air coming from? At what temperature you wanted to exhaust the air?
Bath room is such an example. Do you air condition the bath room?
If you are running an air loop for many zones, you do not need an exhaust fan for each zone. Plenum or a reutn air duct is the exhaust air mixer, one return air to many zones. You may send the return air to the outdoor, or mix it into the fresh air intake with the OA mixer box.
Ventilation object can have a fan in the exhaust mode. Intake is at OA temperature, and oulet at zone mean air temperature.
So, it is not a simple question after all.

Dear All,
I have a simple question. Is it possible in EnergyPlus to connect an exhaust fan object to several zones or there should be a single zone for each exhaust fan?
Thanks a lot!
