Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] EnergyPlus weather data



ASHRAE's IWEC CD isn't PDF--that's a mistake that
the marketing people made.

We (DOE, for EnergyPlus user) have a license to post
all of the IWEC data  (International Weather for Energy
Calculations, 227 locations in 70+- countries) in the
EnergyPlus/ESP-r weather format (EPW) on the
EnergyPlus web site (with  ASHRAE's license info).

We also have been given permission to post the
55 CWEC (Canadian Weather for Energy Calculations)
locations in EPW format.

The weather converter that shipped with V 1.0.0
build 23 did not make it easy (OK, you had to hand
edit the file) to enter design conditions or other information.
The newer version (to be released with V 1.0.1 early
next month) reads the ASHRAE Handbook design
conditions and includes that info in the EPW file.

If you have an immediate need for a specific location,
please send me email and I'll send that one to you
(please just one for now!).  The list of locations from the
IWEC  and CWEC are provided below.

List of IWEC and CWEC locations.
     Format-- XXX_YYYYYYY_ZZZZ.EPW
          where     XXX is the three-letter Country abbreviation (ISO
standard)
               YYYYYYY is the name of the location
               ZZZZ is the format of the source file, either IWEC or CWEC

               For example   ARE_Abu_Dhabi_IWEC.epw  is
                    Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, IWEC source

Hi

Has anyone come across a good source of annual and design weather data
suitable for use with EnergyPlus for sites outside the US?

ASHRAE has a CD with world weather data, but the format is PDF (??).  Has
anyone experience of using this data?  Any other sources?

Thanks
