modelVentilationController
transforms occupation and temperature into air exchange rate
Information
Ventilation is determined from 4 effects:
- People acitivity: according to the occupancy profile more
ventilation will happen, when more people are at home (active).
- Outside temperature: less ventilation at low temperatures and
vice versa (people leave windows open in summer).
- Inside temperature: the higher the inside temperature, the more
ventilation will occure (people preventing overheating).
- Leakage: due to leakage through cracks or openings there will be
a constant air exchange.
