VentilatedZone

Thermal zone with supply and extract air of a ventilation unit

FastSmoothBuildings.Zones.VentilatedZone, model (source)

Extends PartialZone.

Purpose

A thermal zone with the supply and extract air of a ventilation unit: PartialZone with air ports.

Equations

QVen = ∑ ṁa,i cp (Ta,i − TAir) over the supply ports ports_a.

The extract ports ports_b leave at the zone air temperature and pass on the mean fan speed of the supply ports, so that the extract ducts downstream run at the speed of the supply ones.

Parameters

nPorts_a = 1 supply and nPorts_b = 1 extract connections, and those of PartialZone.

Use

Connect a Duct from the supply of a HeatRecoveryUnit to ports_a and another from ports_b back to its extract, as in Examples.VentilatedRoom.

Parameters

Parameter Type Unit Default Description
nPorts_a Integer 1 Number of supply air connections
nPorts_b Integer 1 Number of extract air connections
