I am making some DOE2 and EnergyPlus comparison runs, I want to make sure I use the comparable set of weather files for both. Here is what I did:
1) I downloaded the TMY3 DOE2 Weather files (.BIN) from the site (http://www.whiteboxtechnologies.com/weather_data.html)
2) I Then used EnergyPlus weather converter to get epw from the .BIN file (I first created the .fmt and then ran weather converter on the .fmt).
3) When I made the comparison runs, I see that the diffuse Horizontal solar is different between the two programs.
4) I compared the translated EPW file to the EPW file that I get from EnergyPlus Website. I see that the diffuse Horizontal solar is also different between the translated EPW and the distributed EPW.
5) I also see some differences in wind direction between the two EPW files.
I need to understand why there is a difference and how to make sure I use the comparable weather files (BIN and EPW).
Thanks
