<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I “fourth” Bill’s, Lan’s, and
Jeremy’s responses; design OA flow rates are dictated by zone requirements and
should therefore be simulated at the zone level, regardless of system
type. System OA parameters should typically be limited to economizer
control, MIN-OA-SCH, and OA-FROM-SYSTEM (and ERV or DCV parameters, if
applicable). Following this methodology ensures the zone and
building-level OA flow rates match between models, and it ensures each zone is
getting its design OA regardless of whether or not one is comparing single-zone
systems to multi-zone systems.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Hey Scott,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>To be frank, I haven’t yet
modeled any LEED projects that would use systems 5+, so I have no direct
experience to relate. That said, if I were in an omniscient USGBC
reviewer’s shoes, and you presented this method of matching ventilation rates,
I would check that the design OA rates for each floor are roughly matching the
proposed values and design documents. The practice to specify
MIN-OA-RATIO’s at the system level to start, then tweaking as necessary has
(for me) turned out to be the most efficient way I’ve found of (1) getting the
baseline quantities to start in the right vicinity relative to the proposed,
and (2) maintain an equal distribution of the OA to each zone. As you point
out, it’s on us to not bend the rules and redistribute the OA in a way that is
advantageous… <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Off the top of my head, I think
for baseline systems 5+, I would follow the same basic procedure, using
MIN-OA-RATIO’s from the proposed to get a starting point. For step 5, it
may be appropriate to use a zonal method to specify/tweak the resulting
ventilation rates to match, it would depend on the project-at-hand. On
the other hand, MIN-OA-RATIO may still be a viable option if the modeler will
pay mind as you say to treat each floor/system separately and not to simply
match the gross values for the building.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I have not received any USGBC

not to say it has actually been scrutinized!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>If I am understanding you correctly,
your method is getting the total OA of each model to match up, and you are
doing this at the system level for both the design and baseline buildings.
This differs from my method, where I am trying to get the OA rates to
match up for each zone of the two models.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Your method would seem to work
for a baseline system type 1, 2, 3 or 4, where each thermal block needs to be
modeled as a separate system, but for a system 5, 6, 7 or 8 (where each floor
of the baseline building needs to be modeled with a separate HVAC system) I
would think you would have difficulty getting things to match up. When
you work on these higher system types, and you are modifying the OA ratios of
your baseline systems, do you do it equally for all the systems? If not,
I would think this could give you some freedom the ‘game’ your baseline model
in a way that USGBC would not approve of. I’m not saying you personally
would do this, let me use my current model as an example.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>My current building is a 3 story
system 8 school. The design building has some AHUs (about 25% OA), some
ERUs (100% OA) and some UHs (0% OA). Now, using my method of entering the
OA at the zone level in the baseline building things are working out that I
need energy recovery in the first floor HVAC system, but not the second or
third floor systems. If I use your method of getting the total building
OA rates to match (and if I am understanding it correctly), what would stop me
from taking some of the OA from the first floor system and transferring it to
the second are third floor systems so I can get all three systems under the
requirements for energy recovery, and provide myself some artificially inflated
energy savings, while keeping my total building OA rates equal? In my
very limited feedback from USGBC it seems like they don’t like letting the
modeler have such freedoms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Different systems will use different amounts/types of energy for the same

reviewing to find something you may have missed – perhaps lowering CFM’s are
the culprit? In some cases, the core “secret” to surprisingly outstanding
proposed/baseline performance is getting lucky with a terrible baseline…
the prescriptive requirements, by their nature, can be close to or far from “a
good idea” for any given project/site.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a question regarding outside air input. For my
design building I enter my outside air at the system level, as the minimum
outside air ratio, which I get from my equipment schedules. 90.1 requires
that the outside airflow be the same. To do this I take my summary report
from my design building and enter the values from that report into the baseline
model zones. When I run my baseline model the outside airflow rates from
the summary report match those of my design model, and my unmet heating hours
are good in both models, but the heating gas consumption in my baseline
building triples. The result is I am getting great, but unrealistic,
energy savings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Does anyone know why this is happening? Why would
entering the OA at the zone level cause such increased heating for the save
total CFM entered at the system level? How are you folks typically
handling your outside ventilation air.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
