Overheating Analysis open plan space

[jm2000]

Hello,

Trying to do an over heating analysis for an open plan office but I want to analysis different zones (perimeter and central). Just wondering what is the most effective way to do this?

I am drawing the zones out and cutting holes between the zones, hoping that the different temperatures will show up and not just average the whole space out as one temperature?

I would imagining setting the model up correctly from the start is fundamental to this set of results and pointer would be appreciated!

Thanks

I do it the other way around; draw an open plan, then split it 'without partitions'.

The different areas can then have different supply conditions.

But you must turn MacroFlo on - and this can slow the simulations.
