RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Sizing of equipment with AFN

The answer to Jean's question is Yes. The infiltration rates calculated
using the AirflowNetwork model are used in sizing calculation as a part of
zone loads.

Thanks.

Hi,

Not 100% sure but for the sizing calculation the infiltration is set to a
fixed value.
