Ferrão,

   In general, TRNSYS tries to mimic reality. In a real system, you'd 
have a ventilation system consisting of a fan, a supply vent, a return 
vent and then some pieces of equpment to heat and cool the return air 
before sending it back to the building. A thermostat would monitor the 
room temperature and decide when to turn the fan and other on and off. 
Your system in TRNSYS will look very similar. If you have a clear idea 
of how the physical system will be connected and operated then you can 
begin to create the same in TRNSYS.

  As a side note, there is a training course available 
(http://www.tess-inc.com/trnsys/training.html) whose goal is to teach 
you how to use TRNSYS but also to give you some guidance on how to think 
through the modeling process, which admittedly can certainly be a challenge.

kind regards,

  David
