In AFN models you need to assume a lot of other hypothesis it is no easier than assume the zone infiltration rate.

Asunto: Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Using AFN for windows, but with default infiltration
If you want to model an infiltration value use the zone infiltration. The AFN its to predict the infiltrattion value when you don"t know it.

I don't think the infiltration objects can be used in conjunction with the AFN. That would violate the mass balance of the AFN, wouldn't it?

Hi,
Use the zone 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?
