[BLDG-SIM] Multiple air cooled, split type airconditioner

Do you have to zone the building so all 42 air cooled units are distinct? Or can you combine them into, say, 5-8 mega units?

Also, make sure you model by facing direction and either a single or two interior zones.

You could also combine mid floors (2-9), if, again, you don't need to be precise on the 42 units' zoning.

I am modeling a 10 storey 40*40 sq.m building with large atrium which is served by multiple (42 units) air cooled,

split type AC ( AC supplying air through ducts to various spaces) using the Micro-DOE2.1E

Does anyone have any input similiar with this kind of building, so I can learn furthermore how to model correctly?
