The last time I did that was 3 years ago for CO2 demand control. I defined the damper to work with a fraction open schedule and used the EMS to overwrite schedule values during simulation.
ÂI want to fully close the dampers in the VAV boxes so that no cold air is supplied to the zones using EMS. What actuator can be used in order to achieve this. Should the Zone VAV BOX DAMPER NODE,System Node Setpoint,Mass Flow Rate Setpoint, actuator be used and set to zero s that no cold air enters the zone.
