Hi Folks,
I'm new to EnergyPlus, and a total noob when it
comes to HVAC, so please be gentle! Here's my first newbie
question:
While learning about design days I was confused by
the fact that all of the winter design days in the example weather
data have a 0 daily temperature range modifier. Searching the
input\output reference yielded this note:
"Note that usual Winter design conditions are for
very cloudy days (clearness = 0), and low temperatures (temperature
range=0)."
Unfortunately no explanation is given why low
temperatures should have 0 for the daily temperature range...? This is one
of those things that is probably obvious to an HVAC pro, but it's not at all
clear to me why a winter design day should not bother with highs and lows in the
temperature range.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
