Hi all,
I have a theoretical question to ask about Minimum Venting Open Factor used in AirflowNetwork:Multizone:Zone.
I don't understand exactly why this parameter consider that, even if a window should be closed, there a minimum open factor anyway.
I hope my question is clear. Does it simulate that windows are opened for a defined period of time?
Example, considering an availability of windows OF modulation comtrol of 24h/24h, if this parameter is set to 0.04 could it simulate approximately and conceptually that windows are opened for the 1.2% of the time?
(windows open with OF=1 for 0.288 hours (1.2% of total time) == OF=0.04 for 24hours).
They are not the same because of the different temporal dimension of the problem (climatic data changes during the 24 hours, and so the effects can't not be the same) but...
