Deconstruct Infiltration

- [source code]

Deconstruct an Infiltration object into its constituient properties.

Inputs

• infil [Required]

  An Infiltration object to be deconstructed.

Outputs

• name

  Text string for the infiltration display name.

• flow_per_ext_area

  A numerical value for the intensity of infiltration in m3/s per square meter of exterior surface area. Typical values for this property are as follows (note all values are at typical building pressures of ~4 Pa):

  • 0.0001 (m3/s per m2 facade) - Tight building

  • 0.0003 (m3/s per m2 facade) - Average building

  • 0.0006 (m3/s per m2 facade) - Leaky building

• schedule

  A fractional schedule for the infiltration over the course of the year. The fractional values will get multiplied by the flow_per_exterior_area to yield a complete infiltration profile.
