Semiheated space and baseline model

NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performance
posted by  Francesco Passerini  on 

In the proposed building there is a semiheated space (climate zone 4, heating power 40 W/m^2, no ventilation, no cooling). In the baseline model shall that space be modeled without HVAC system?

Hello, If in the proposed building there are plenums specified as return air path in the HVAC system, should I use them or ignore them in the baseline model? Thank you,
