using Eq。 (2)。 Only one rate is calculated for each building at each door usage。 The rates are used as input in EnergyPlus as design flow rate zone infiltration replacing the existing door infiltra- tion in the model。 A schedule is then used to control the door operation。
2。 Seasonal Design Method – A process similar to that used in the Design Method is followed while calculating two infiltration rates for each building at each door usage; one rate correspond- ing to the winter and the other to the summer season design conditions。 A program within the energy model then selects dif- ferent infiltration rates based on the season。

the two seasons’ design conditions are conducted for the build- ings in each climate zone location。 The infiltration rates obtained from simulation are then input to EnergyPlus and are used sim- ilar to the Seasonal Design Method。 For this method, the design conditions presented in Table 2 are inputs in CONTAM (for each location and each season)。
4。 Yearly CONTAM Method – A whole year airflow simulation with hourly outputs is completed with doors in the airflow model fol- lowing the same door operation schedule used in the energy simulation (Table 3)。 The results are exported from CONTAM
