Dear Waseem,
In my view, the second hypothesis with hybrid possibilities .... For example, let's think you have six windows, three different types in two distinct zones, then you could have:
� Class List >; ZoneVentilation:WindAndStackOpenArea > Obj1, with a any name (Large_Window) and the Zone respective + Obj2, with a any name (Front_Window) and the Zone respective + Obj3 with a any name (Large_Window 2) and the Zone respective + � + Obj6, with a any name (Exhaust-Window) and the Zone resspective.
For each object you could be a "opening area” respective, for the "opening area fraction schedule name” you would have previously specified in Class List > Schedule:Compact a schedule for every object or for each one, a “opening effectiveness", a "effective angle” for North orientation, and the "height difference” based at ASHRAE rules. The "discharge coefficient” could be a autocalculate value, and the other fields with the default values.
Best regards,
