2020-10-02 08:17:19 -0500 marked best answer Why in Natural Ventilation is there "fan efficiency" ?

Hi there! I'm in OpenStudio -> Thermal Zones -> Zone Ventilation Design Flow Rate -> Natural Ventilation. I'm mooving this natural ventilation to the "zone equipment" of each thermal zone. Now, for this natural ventilation I'm setting data like schedules and air change per hour. My qyestion is: why are there in this section data like "fan pressure rise", "fan total efficiency"? I know that natural ventilation is just something like opening windows, why are there data to fullfill about fans? thank you

2019-04-25 08:11:49 -0500 marked best answer Fatal error because of the .epw file

Hi everyone, I'm running the simulation in open studio, but it fails. This is what is written in in the eplusout: Program Version,EnergyPlus, Version 8.5.0-c87e61b44b, YMD=2016.12.16 19:38,IDD_Version 8.5.0 * Warning * IP: Note -- Some missing fields have been filled with defaults.

It's written that there is an error in the weather file, in the 1st January 2050 at the hour 1. But if I open the .epw in Elements it seems everything is ok. Any suggestion? thank you

2018-10-12 20:43:42 -0500 marked best answer Edit "design specification outdoor air" ?

Hi, I'm setting the Space Types (in the "general") in OpenStudio, and I want to put into the box some "Design specification outdoor air" on the right side. My problem is that I can only find the ventilations of ashrae189.1. Where can I generate a new one of these? thank you

2017-05-29 09:30:45 -0500 marked best answer Where can I find epw. of year 2050?

I would like to use a epw. for year 2050. I can predict that temperature will rise of 2 °C, and for this I can use the software Elements, instead I can't find the differences like wind speed, solar radiaton, cloud cover, relative humidity of the future.

Thank you very much

2017-02-05 06:51:26 -0500 asked a question What material is "Coated poly" ?

I'm using the "Trp LoE Film (66) Bronze 6-13 (Air)" windows downloaded from the BCL library. In these kind of windows there is a center layer called "Coated Poly 66". What material is this? Has anyone any pic about this window? Can this window be a good window for offices?

2017-02-01 15:19:53 -0500 asked a question How can I visualize easily the eplusout.csv?

I ran the simulation in OpenStudio, and re-ran the .idf in EP-Launch in order to get the eplusout.csv. How can I import it in Excel in an understandable way? Just import it makes the information not readable. Thank you
