A flow
network of pressure nodes coupled
by non-linear flow resistances is used to predict
the ventilation rates. |
| |
|
|
Each
internal zone is represented by a single pressure
node
and the outdoor air at each opening by a boundary
node. |
| |
|
|
The
total pressure (po)
at each boundary node in the flow network include
wind and stack
induced pressures. |
| |
|
|
The pressure of the internal
node is taken as the static pressure inside the
zone. |
