How does one use ZoneHVACEquipmentList in an OpenStudio Measure?

I'm trying to write a measure that will set the exhaust fan flow rate for a given zone based on the supply flow rate of the zone conditioning equipment, in this case PTACs in a large hotel (delta of 5 cfm per room). My question is if using ZoneHVACEquipmentList is the best approach and if so how it would be used to in a measure.

My larger question for future measures is how does one get the zone equipment from the equipment list and then make changes to that equipment for specific zones (e.g. by space type or name).
