[TRNSYS-users] coupling air throw windows

[David Bradley]

Laia,
  You can define the coupling air flow in whatever way you like. As long 
as there is an adjacent surface between two zones (whether a wall or a 
window) you can define some air movement through that surface. You could 
have all the coupling air go through the wall, all of it go through the 
window, or you could split it in whatever proportion you like. The total 
air flow from one zone to the other is going to be the sum of all the 
individual air flows.

  Also keep in mind that if you define air flow in one direction (zone A 
to zone B for example) this does NOT mean that there is a corresponding 
amount of air assumed to flow from zone B back to zone A; you must 
specify that separately.
Best,
  David
