honeybee_openstudio.hvac.standards.thermal_zone.thermal_zone_get_occupancy_schedule(model, thermal_zone)

Get the occupancy schedule of the zone.

Parameters:

thermal_zone – [OpenStudio::Model::ThermalZone] OpenStudio ThermalZone object.

honeybee_openstudio.hvac.standards.thermal_zone.thermal_zone_get_outdoor_airflow_rate(thermal_zone)

Calculates the zone outdoor airflow requirement (Voz).

The result will be based on the inputs in the DesignSpecification:OutdoorAir objects in all spaces in the zone.

Parameters:

thermal_zone – [OpenStudio::Model::ThermalZone] OpenStudio ThermalZone object.

Returns:

[Double] the zone outdoor air flow rate in cubic meters per second (m^3/s).

honeybee_openstudio.hvac.standards.thermal_zone.thermal_zone_get_outdoor_airflow_rate_per_area(thermal_zone)

Calculates the zone outdoor airflow requirement and divides by the zone area.

Parameters:

thermal_zone – [OpenStudio::Model::ThermalZone] OpenStudio ThermalZone object.

Returns:

[Double] the zone outdoor air flow rate in cubic meters per second per floor area(m3/s/m2).
