Hello
To my best understand, EnergyPlus does not provide an object or way to represent mist (tiny water droplets) except specifying "FractionLatent" of equipment objects. Am I correct?
The problem in using "FractionLatent" value for simulating the impact of mist on heating/cooling energy consumption is caused by the fact that mist is different from vapor. While vapor is a gas including latent heat, mist is actually a liquid. It is true that both vapor and mist drive the zone to take more energy for heating/cooling than when having a dried air only.
I am not still clear of how to simulate mist in EnergyPlus. Please let me know if you know a better way. If using "FractionLatent" for mist simulation is the only solution, is there a good approximation mathematical function to convert the mass of mist into "FactionLatent"?
Thank you
