Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Need your valuable comments

Creating custom weather files is described in the Auxiliary
Programs document or you can ask for a Meteonorm file to be produced
(send message to this group).  For a meteonorm creation, you need to
include:


Name of Location (including country)
Latitude (N+/S-)(decimal format preferred)
Longitude (E+/W-)(decimal format preferred)
Time Zone (+/- GMT)
Elevation (meters)

For convenience, you can convert lat/long in degrees minutes seconds to
the decimal format by visiting this web link:

You should also
read:

Information on selecting weather data is described in this
paper: 
Drury B. Crawley. 1998. "Which Weather Data Should You Use for
Energy Simulations of Commercial Buildings?" in ASHRAE Transactions,
pp. 498-515, Vol. 104, Pt. 2. Atlanta: ASHRAE. (PDF 197 KB)

Your spreadsheet will
come from either the csv file you produce or by selecting tabular
reports.  Doing simulations is described in the Getting Started
manual.
