#air_loop_hvac_apply_multizone_vav_outdoor_air_sizing(air_loop_hvac) ⇒ Object

TODO:

move building-type-specific code to Prototype classes

Apply multizone vav outdoor air method and adjust multizone VAV damper positions to achieve a system minimum ventilation effectiveness of 0.6 per PNNL. Hard-size the resulting min OA into the sizing:system object.

return [Bool] returns true if successful, false if not

#air_loop_hvac_economizer_type_allowable?(air_loop_hvac, climate_zone) ⇒ Bool

Check the economizer type currently specified in the ControllerOutdoorAir object on this air loop is acceptable per the standard.

Returns false if the economizer type is not allowable.

Returns:

  • (Bool) —

    Returns true if allowable, if the system has no economizer or no OA system.

#air_terminal_single_duct_vav_reheat_apply_initial_prototype_damper_position(air_terminal_single_duct_vav_reheat, building_type, zone_oa_per_area) ⇒ Bool

Set the initial minimum damper position based on OA rate of the space and the template. Zones with low OA per area get lower initial guesses. Final position will be adjusted upward as necessary by Standards.AirLoopHVAC.apply_minimum_vav_damper_positions

Parameters:

  • zone_oa_per_area (Double) —

    the zone outdoor air per area, m^3/s

Returns:

  • (Bool) —

    returns true if successful, false if not
