Purpose of this Lecture
Discuss Outside Air IAQ requirements force us to draw
fresh air in from the outside environment
Outside air (OA) can have a significant impact on the building energy requirements
Show how OA is specified in EnergyPlus

Summary
Introduction of outside air into a forced air system is necessary to meet indoor air quality (IAQ) standards
Outside air (mixing box) in EnergyPlus is a component on an air loop branch
Outside air system also contains controllers that can be operated in economizer mode
