RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Using AFN for windows, but with default infiltration

The AFN model is not designed to maintain a constant ACH through cracks.
However, you may adjust crack sizes to make ACH close to what you need.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Using AFN for windows, but with default
infiltration

Hi All


I am using AFN to model air flow through window openings that I am
controlling using EMS


However, when the windows are closed the only infiltration is through cracks
and the infiltration is much less than 0.1ach. I want to model a 'default'
0.1ach when the windows are closed, as this is a typical value used in
simulations.


Is this possible?
