Hi Francisco

You are correct, for a ducted return you should model the plenums as voids. When you do not model return air plenums, the software assumes ducted return.
There’s nothing much more to consider about voids. You can add internal gains to voids (if necessary). The voids are unconditioned ...

Hi David

No the VE wont give you the output related to reflected sunlight. Being a building sim software, it only accounts for the solar heat gains on the building.
