[TRNSYS-users] Airnodes and use of the coupling tool

[Joke De Beuckelaer]

Dear all,

I'm modeling a landscape office. Because I want to measure the temperature at different places, I divided the landscape office in different air nodes.

In attachment, you can find a simplified drawing.

I was wondering if my assumptions for the model are correct:

-       Situation 1: pulsion of fresh air in two air nodes of the office and extraction in the corridor (still part of the landscape office)

*         Is it correct to model this situation like mentioned in the attachment? (vent = ventilation defined)

*         Some questions:

o    In the case of cross-ventilation, by the coupling tool do you have to consider the "upper" or the "lower" part?

o    For air node 3 is it necessary to define and the coupling and the ventilation? Or is one of these two sufficient?
When you have to define the coupling, is het possible to indicate that a certain air flow is received from different adjacent air nodes?


-       Situation 2: pulsion of fresh air in two air nodes of the office and extraction in the corridor which is a different zone now.

*         Is it correct to model this situation like mentioned in the attachment?


If you have any questions or if my question isn't very clear, don't hesitate to contact me.


Thanks in advance,
