compliance link to macroflo?

Post by akraw »

do i need to link my compliance simulations with macroflo (incl all profiles for window openings) if i have natural ventilation of any sort for a building?

and on nat vented plantrooms: if they are heated to 'condensation protection' then no need to model nat vent there as the rooms heating and aux is in fact to be ignored as in L2A and system set to 'none?

thanks

Mixed mode buildings can benefit greatly linking macroflo and show reduced cooling energies from my experience. But I tend to implement that only with controlled openings, as theres no guarantee occupants will open windows or indeed close them when infiltration is warmer than the internal temp.
