[EnergyPlus_Support] Warning -- Some of the recent DOE-2 BIN conversions
In some of the DOE-2 BIN format conversions I've done for people recently,
I have just noticed that some of the years are showing up as -999.
I'm not sure what EnergyPlus will do with this when it tries to read the
file. The year of the Weather File is not important to EnergyPlus. But it
does look a bit confusing in outputs.
From what I can tell, this is the year that is being produced from the BIN
=> FMT conversion and may be on the original BIN file. Without using that
file in DOE-2, I don't know how to find out.
I thought I would warn you all. I will be changing the weather converter
for EnergyPlus so it won't produce -999 as the year from these. Any
suggestions on what the year should be in this case?
Just thought I would warn you. Fortunately, the EPW file is easily edited
as it is a flat ASCII text file.
