[EnergyPlus_Support] AFN How to Simulate Hung-Windows?

Hello,

I couldn't find how to describe Hung-Windows (top/bottom/side) in the AFN - Model. May be the effective Area would be a way for cross ventilation, but how to deal with bidirectional single sided ventilation? I plan to simulate the ventilation rates according to an opening angle of hung windows. Variables i could use (probably together with EMS) are the discharge coefficient, the window hight, the window width and the opening factor. I think for a controlled, bidirectional flow the detailed opening model should be best. Do you have any recommendations how to model or some literature describing the problem?

Thank you,
Tobias
