[Bldg-sim] eQUEST 3.64 and TMY2

[Chuck Khuen]

Matt,

We can supply you with a new TM2 file for your site, if that will help get 
you unstuck.  Our new system builds them from the most recent 30 years of 
hourly data pretty much right at your site of interest and they come in both 
TM2 and EPW format (soon .BIN as well for DOE-2).  While we are a commercial 
service, I will get you this file at no charge if it helps you...perhaps you 
will become a customer in the future.

Let me know.

Chuck

I'm surprised that you're experiencing difficulties with TMY2 data,
since they've been around for 15 years. Which weather file were you using?
The only time I've ever experienced with DOE-2 stopping due to a weather
file was when the file had bad psychrometrics that were outside of
physical possibility.
