Description

Enhancement Request

AirTerminal:SingleDuct:ConstantVolume:NoReheat has two fields at the end in E+ 23.2.0 (not sure when they were added):

  • Design Specification Outdoor Air Object Name
  • Per Person Ventilation Rate Mode

Probably worth it to add them.

Detailed Description

cf https://bigladdersoftware.com/epx/docs/23-2/input-output-reference/group-air-distribution-equipment.html#field-design-specification-outdoor-air-object-name

Possible Implementation

DSOA field should be "Control for Outdoor Air" (Yes/No) to match other objects.
