Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] weather file

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

why not just put in the run period as jan 1 to jun
1?

up to you.

you will need to change the data periods header in the EPW file so it
knows when the end date is.

Thanks, Linda. If I keep the hour values from Jan 1 to Jun 1 in the weather file and delete other hours, is this feasible?  I want to do this because I plan to use the BCVTB to control EPlus for specified days. I am still thinking about this.

Thanks,
Jia

No, why would you want to do that?

You could make multiple run periods for each period you want to run, however.

Hello:

I have a question here. If I convert E+ weather file to csv and then delete several days in each month (that is, delete several rows in the csv file) to run simulations, how can I specify the RunPeriod object in the idf file? Does EPlus allow to use weather files with non-continuous days or hours?

Thank you,

JH
