[TRNSYS-users] Infiltration clarification

[Marcus <jones.0bj3@gmail.com>]

Say I want to simulate a passive house in TRNSYS using type 56. For an airtight building shell, passive house infiltration should be say ≤ 0.6 ACH @ 50 pascal pressure. 
(http://www.passivehouse.us/passiveHouse/PassiveHouseInfo.html)

The type 56 TRNBLD units for infiltration; are they at static or at 50 pa? If they are at static, I need to divide 0.6 by ~ 20 (estimate from Sherman 1987), so I input Airchange = 0.03 1/hr. Correct? 

Cheers,

Marcus
