I made a small simulation model of a school containing 2 zones with each a VAV and a CO2 control for DCV. In EMS I wrote a programm that can control the air flow rate for each zone according to a CO2 setpoint. If the setpoint is exceeded in 1 zone the air flow rate will increase for this zone. For this I used the outdoor air controller as an actuator to control the total air flow rate. The next step is to control the air flow rate for the zone seperately. Therefore, I tried some actuators like (air loop zone splitter outlet 1, Zone1VAV supply outlet and Zone 1 Air Node). The prolem is that I can't control the air flow rate per zone. I specified the air flow rate for the zone in EMS per zone but nothing happens.
What is the right way to control the air flow rate per zone with EMS in energyplus?
I made this programm because I only want to increase the air flow rate when the CO2 setpoint is exceeded and not depending on the number of persons present in the room.
