binb,
if u have measured solar radiatio in minutes then first u take average of one hour data then replace K,L,M column in weather file like split of global solar radiation in to direst normal and diffuse horizontal solar radiations.
In weather file inputs are houly data only.

I see.. I converted EPW into .CSV file and, the first five fields become date and time. Thanks! Bing

EnergyPlus does not automatically adjust the data for a new location.
The EPW format allows for minutes -- the only data we have is all hourly. The 5th field is mins (usually 60) in all the existing EPWs. See the Auxiliary Programs guide for more information on the EPW format. http://energyplus. gov/pdfs/ auxiliaryprogram s.pdf
Hi All,
I have two questions regarding to the solar radiation data in weather file.
1. If the downloaded weather data from DOE website is from airport, does E+ do an auto-scale for the actual simulation place which is 20 miles away from airport, given the correct latitude and longitude ? As we all know that the sky condition is changed from place to place.
2. If my measured data is in terms of minutes, where can I input these data into the weather file (e.g. the simulation time step could be 10 minutes)? The time format of the weather file is in hours.
Thank you very much!
Bing
