RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] cooltower and ventilation

[Lixing Gu <gu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you would like to simulate natural ventilation (multizone airflows driven
by wind), you may use a key choice of MultizoneWithoutDistribution, instead
of MultizoneWithDistribution. If you select the choice of
MultizoneWithDistribution, you need inputs of a duct system. It is limited
to a single AirLoopHVAC object.  The error message show such restriction.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] cooltower and ventilation

Hi All, 

any tips on implementing both natural ventilation (i am using a very simple
airflow network) and a CoolTowerShower, my .err seems to indicate they will
not operate together...

It could be that, although I have added a SimulationControl Type of
MultizoneWithDistribution, I havent yet added nodes or whatever else this
control would mean I need.
