[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Difference between RunPeriod and SizingPeriod:weatherfiledata

["hjtju2002" <hujia06@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

I define in my input file the RunPeriod is the whole year. And I also set up the SizingPeriod:weatherFileDays is only two month (Jan 1st to March 1st). Both of them use the same weath file.

But after simulation, I found that the results of the same day calculated using RunPeriod and SizingPeriod are different. For example, on Feb 1st, the electric power is 75 for RunPeriod and 227 for SizingPeriod.
 
Could anyone explain why they are different?
