Double-click on the zone icon to display the Zone Properties dialog shown below. Name the zone A and set the volume at 100 m. Notice the Floor Area will automatically be calculated by dividing the volume by the default level height of 3 m. Click the OK button to set the zone properties as indicated by the black zone icon.

Right click on the left hand wall and select Flow Path from the icon placement menu. This will place an undefined path icon on the wall.
Double-click on the path icon to display the Airflow Path Properties dialog box shown below.
Click on the New Element button to display the list of Airflow Element Models shown below.

Select the Orifice Area Data model and click the OK button. This will display the Powerlaw Model: Orifice dialog box shown below. Name the airflow element Orfc1, provide a Descripton of 100 cm2 orfice, and click the OK button.
The Airflow Path Properties dialog box should now indicate the Name of the Airflow Element Orfc1 along with its Model Summary information as shown below. Click the OK button to set the airflow path properties as indicated by the black airflow path icon.

Now create a fan to force airflow through the zone, by adding another path to the opposite wall and activating the Airflow Path Properties. Create a new Constant Volume Flow model having a flow rate of 100 m/h as shown below and click OK.
Select the Flow Path tab of the Airflow Path Properties dialog and set the Positive Flow Direction to be From zone A to zone Ambt as shown below and click OK.

Define a Contaminant
In order to perform contaminant calculations, you must create at least one contaminant to be simulated. Activate the Project Species dialog box via the Data - Contaminants ... menu command. Click the New button to display the Species Properties dialog box shown below and create a species named CO2 having the properties shown below.

Click the OK button, and the Project Species dialog box should now indicate that the project contains one species and that species is used in the simulation which makes it appear in the Contaminants list as well, i.e., a contaminant is a species that is set to be used in the simulation. This allows you to activate and deactivate contaminants between simulations without losing the properties. Now click the OK button to set the properties of the species/contaminant.

every hour until 06:00:00. Give it a name, e.g., FanSched, as shown in the following figure, and click the OK button.
Select all of the days on the left side of the Week Schedule dialog box, and click the Replace button to set them all to the newly defined day schedule. Give the schedule a name as shown in the following figure and click the OK button.
The schedule for the fan airflow path should now be set to the one you just created as shown in the Airflow Path Properties dialog box in the following figure.
