Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Simulation a ventilation facade




"This field is used to enter an area fraction for what part of the baffle consists of openings. The area of the openings will set to the product of this field and the sum of the area of the underlying surfaces."
This is the extract of the reference but I don't understand a lot of it. I make an example: I have a wall with this dimension: h:4 mt x l:1,5mt... This wall is a ventilation facade with a cavity of 5 centimeters, with 2 openings, one on the bottom and the other is in the upperside of the wall. If the wall is in a vertical position, the 2 openings are in the horizzontal position! So, the area of my openings is:  A(openings) = 5 cm x 1,5mt, isn'it? Is it right?? the area Fraction of opening is : Area(opening)/Area(total wall)? isn'it? thanks
