Dear eQuesters,
My client requires to do a thermal simulation for a two-story atrium/staircase to check if the cooling system is required for it. The atrium has a revolving door, which revolves once every 30 minutes, and the swing door opens for 30 minutes every 8 hours for shift change. My question is how to simulate the revolving door and swing door in eQuest? I noticed that ASHRAE 90.1-2010 mentioned the infiltration from these two types of doors is 1.0 cfm/ft2 tested at a pressure of at least 1.57 pounds per square foot (psf), but I do not quite understand what this means and how to use this number in my model. If any one has an idea, please give the comments. Thank you so much!
Kindly regards,
Zarah
