Hi! I'm trying to model passive chilled beams in my model with the EnergyPlus block: AirTerminal:SingleDuct:ConstantVolume:CooledBeam by choosing for passive in Cooled Beam Type. The IO reference states that air inlet and outlet nodes should be assigned, although a passive chilled beam has no primary air supply. I find it difficult what to do with these air inlet and outlet nodes, I've tried them in an air loop and as outdoor air nodes but this problems because another air loop with CAV Reheat is already present. I only found example files with active chilled beams, anyone who has experience with passive chilled beams in EnergyPlus?
