[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: outside air temperature




Thank you , Dru,

Because I am testing a cooling mode for a certain equipment, I need 
a fixed outdoor temperature 30DBC . Then can I  use SummerDesignDay 
in Day Type instead of WinterDesignDay to accomplish this task?  OR 
WinterDesignDay can  handle any temperature I want, i.e, -10C or 30C?
"Whatever" means I can customize  a  value I like, does not it? 

John
