Hello my friends!
I'm trying to model a big warehouse on OpenStudio/Sketch-Up, but I'm really new on that, so there are some doubts that I think you could help me.
- My natural ventilation system need to be composed of a loop that the cooling air infiltrate the zone between a metal grid on the side walls, and the heated air be exhausted by non-eletric exhaust fans on the ceilling, but I don't know how to put a non-eletric exhaust element in the model, even the infiltration by metal grids.
- My design project has 46,000 m², and a 14 meters floor-to-celling distance. Despite the size, I made just one big thermal zone, I'm wondering if I don't need to divide this thermal zone to get a better accuratted result.
- To the logistic acess, my design has almost 80 overhead sectional doors, but when I model then on SketchUp and send it to the OSM, when I try seeing the geometry, the program crashes (I think that maybe there is to much infos to process, but for me if the program could run well, I don't need to see the 3d, I only need to sure it).
Thank you!!
