Supply and extract grilles

Post by huntervu28 »

From microFlo website :
" How MicroFlo works:
MicroFlo enables you to simulate internal conditions in six easy steps:

1. Run ApacheSim to generate boundary conditions.
2. In MicroFlo, select the rooms you wish to simulate. Define surface boundary conditions if not using ApacheSim, and make any adjustments (eg. you can place supply and extract grilles).
3. Add additional components (eg. people, computers, radiators).
4. MicroFlo's automatic grid generation tool creates a grid based on the shape of the model, windows, surface objects and components.
5. Run and monitor simulation progress.
6. Review results. "

How could I place supply and extract grilles please.
I would like to simulate CFD in a basement with some kind of FCU, but it's still difficult.
Can we link Microflo with Apache Hvac ?

sorry... watching leaders debate with a glass of vino... is this not covered in the user-guide? It's been a while since I used CFD but I'm pretty sure I read about grills a few years ago.
