Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Weatherfile: Amman, Jordan





Sorry for the repeated postings on this thread,  just wanted to add a note of caution that the IWEC2 list is sorted alphabetically by the 3-letter ISO 3166 country code, rather than the vernacular country name in English. As an example,  the German stations (DEU) will appear following those for the Czech Republic (CZE).

For those more comfortable with XLSX files, the same list of IWEC2 weather files is available in a Excel spreadsheet as http://www.whiteboxtechnologies.com/IWEC2_locations.xlsx

Shady,

There are ASHRAE IWEC2 weather files for Amman as well as nine other locations in Jordan.  The entire set of 3,012 IWEC2 weather files are available on a DVD from ASHRAE (www.techstreet.com/cgi-bin/detail?product_id=1823067) for $229.

Individual IWEC2 weather files are now also available from my company (White Box Technologies)  in various formats (BINM for DOE-2, EPW for EnergyPlus, etc.) for $35 per site.  I will be posting a general announcement on various bulletin boards about this in a few weeks time about this in a few weeks time after the Web page has been completed and tested.

In the meanwhile, anyone interested in a IWEC2 weather file can just send me an e-mail. For a list of the 3,012 IWEC2 locations, please see  http://www.whiteboxtechnologies.com/IWEC2_locations.txt

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Thermal mass methods

 

I believe thermal mass is accomodated by the basic nature of the heat balance algorithms method.

That is, if the user enters the materials using their "mass" rather than a simple R value.

Although thermal mass and its applications in Energy Plus are repeatedly mentioned in these documents, I still could not find the basic fundamentals behind the consideration of thermal mass itself. The very basic methods that were used to introduce the concept of thermal mass in the Energy Plus program in the first place. Any help?
