Hi,

I'm using version 1.4.0.048. A model with an atrium space generates unexpected air changes.

Used parameters: Unitary single zone, mech vent by zone (1.3 ac/h in offices), ventilation schedule = occupancy, infiltration rate = 0.5 ac/h, no nat vent

Results: In some zones, there is no ventilation at all, in other zones, the values rise up to 7.5 ac/h.
Quite strange...

Bye,
Filip

Filip, I suggest you try v.1.4.0.056 to see if this changes results. The model you sent us by email generates results that look OK at my end. Please let me know how you get on.

Andy
