Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Modelling air handling unit (AHU) without coils for mechanical ventilation only

["Jim Dirkes jim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about making:

• a typical air loop with no heating or cooling coils?
  
• an ASHRAE baseline #3 air loop, but setting cooling / heating coil availability always = 0?

Hi,

What is the best way to model air handling unit (AHU) without heating and cooling elements in EnergyPlus, meaning it is only used for mechanical ventilation purposes. OR we have to use DesignSpecification:OutdoorAirobject? If we use this then how this will be calibrated with the actual data, once the model is ready?

Thanks
