Outside Environment air volume for simple air flow benchmark
Diagram of OutsideEnvironment

Information

An air volume to represent the outside environment for air flow benchmark.

Assumptions and limitations

So far, the side ratio for the building is set to 1 for testing the general modeling approach. It may be necessary to calculate this parameter depending on the scale of the test.

Typical use and important parameters

port_a and port_b should be connected to the corresponding ports of ZoneHallway so that there is an air exchange through the orifices of the hallway element.
