Since infiltration is reduced to low levels and minimum ventilation levels are laid down by the room activities, the main opportunity for using ventilation control to reduce carbon emissions and summer temperatures is free cooling.
It is possible to use ApacheHVAC in compliance simulations. However, the inputs to this program needs to be set with care in order to ensure that the ventilation levels and schedules specified for the room activities are accurately reproduced. In both cases profiles will need to match that of the NCM usage schedules, which means that special models will need to be created for the compliance simulations.
