DesignSpecification:OutdoorAir ProportionalControlBasedOnOccupancySchedule method

edit

ProportionalControlBasedOnOccupancySchedule does not work. You can raise the issue (https://github.com/NREL/EnergyPlus/issues/new). I didn't do so just because it did not affect my models. I always use IndoorAirQualityProcedure to model DCV controlled by CO2 concentration.

Alternatively, you can add the occupancy schedule (i.e. the schedule you put in Number of People Schedule Name in People) to Minimum Outdoor Air Schedule Name in Controller:OutdoorAir in order to control the outdoor air flow rate based on the occupancy schedule.

Outdoor Air Method in DesignSpecification:OutdoorAir can be Sum Flow/Person, Flow/Area or Flow/Zone.

Controller:MechanicalVentilation, ZoneControl:ContaminantController and ZoneAirContaminantBalance are not used. Please delete them.

If the occupancy schedule is different in each room, I think you can use EMS to override each outdoor air flow rate in DesignSpecification:OutdoorAir.
