<p class=MsoNormal>I think it also depends on the software you are using to
model a fume hood. Because if exhaust is specified more than the supply 
due to the hood, the software  may disregard the lower supply and equate
the higher value of exhaust to the supply. I am also trying to  model a
VAV exhaust fume hood and facing a lot of problems doing it. So you have to
figure out a way to control you exhaust by altering your VAV supply.<o:p></o:p></p>
