How do I simulate Barra-Costantini system (passive solar system) with energyplus?

Hello, I want to simulate Barra-Costantini system (passive solar system) with energyplus. This system is similar to Trombe wall except that the heated air moves into the ceiling. And between the wall and the glass is a metal plate. How do I do this simulation so that I can output the rate of air exchange and energy consumption?As well as the zone temperature and the temperature inside the ceiling?
