Re: Fw: [EnergyPlus_Support] Run a lot of input files (attached files embedded)
Lee,
I should have explained things in the scripts in more detail. I hope you are
generally familiar with DOS batch commands. In the first batch script,
doepall.bat, each line represents one call to run EnergyPlus using the
runEPmacro(.bat) script, with the following arguments being passed
sequentially as %1, %2, %3, %4, etc. These are substituted in runEPmacro in
place of %1, %2, %3, %4, etc. For example, the first line of my sample
doEPall.bat is:
call runEPmacro VAV 0 04 cool t24 t24 t24
This translates into running runEPmacro.bat with VAV=%1, 0=%2, 04=%3,
cool=%4, etc.
Starting with the 5th line, runEPmacro. says:
echo ##set1 lec_systems %1 >> in.imf
echo ##set1 evap_ach %2 >> in.imf
echo ##set1 location %3 >> in.imf
echo ##set1 cooling %4 >> in.imf
....
Substituting the arguments from doEPall, this tells EPmacro to produce a
file called in.imf that start as
##set1 lec_systems VAV
##set1 evap_ach 0
##set location 04
##set1 cooling cool
...
runEPmacro.bat then appends to in.imf a master EnergyPlus input file with
macros. This file is called in.imf because that is what EPMacro will look
for
copy in.imf + LgOff_t24_baselineSATR13.imf in.imf
c:\EnergyPlus\EP-Macro\EPMacro
If you have a simple in.idf file instead, i.e., a file without macros, then
there would be no change and no point in doing the macro substitutions.
Similarly, with the weather files, runEPmacro.bat picks the appropriate
weather file and copies it to in.epw, the file name needed by EnergyPlus:
pkunzip c:\Energy~3\WEATHER\ctz%3c.zip
rem
move ctz%3cDO.epw in.epw
rem
le
Here, since %3 was passed from DoEPall as 04, the selected weather file will
be ctz04c.zip.
The only wrinkle is that I keep the weather files in *.zip form to save
space, and so have to unzip the weather file before renaming it in in.epw.
Also, I keep my weather files in the WEATHER subdirectory in the
EnergyPlus_Working directory, the 8-letter name of which in DOS is
Energy~3. This will vary depending on the file structure on your machine.
If you are confused by all this, I suggest you review DOS command language,
since my batch scripts are using very common DOS commands.
Joe
