Alternate AIIR ventilation configuration – Operating Conditions

No. Boundary Boundary Condition Boundary value required
1. Linear Inlet diffuser Number of slots in the Linear Diffuser 2
Flow rate 55% of Qin = 81.49CFM (138.45 CMH)
Angle 450
Direction of flow: Towards the window (for the slot closest to window); Directly downwards for the 2nd slot furthest from window.
2. Square supply Flow rate 45% of Qin = 66.67CFM (113.27 CMH)
Angle 450
Direction of flow: Outward, air flows into the room.
3. Main Room Exhaust Flow rate 225 CFM (382.27 CMH)
Direction of flow: Into the exhaust vent, air extracted from the room.
4 Bath Room Exhaust Flow rate 80CFM (135.92 CMH)
5 Main Door Gaps Pressure at the main door gaps −0.01” W.G.
6. Bath Door Gaps (Assuming bath receives 10% of its exhaust makeup air from leaks other than bathroom entry door) Flow rate 72CFM (122.32 CMH)
