Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] How to convert real weather data to epw file
Dear All
In order to calibrate my EnergyPlus model I have to use real time weather data from year 2011. But I don't know how to change my data from Excel file to epw format.
I tired to save it as CSV and use WeatherConverter but it have to be EnergyPlus CSV format. For other CSV files I should define a DEF file to describe the format.
Can someone help me with this problem? How to build a DEF file to describe the format?
Besides, the real time weather I found didn't include solar radiation data. Where can I find better weather data for calibration?
Thanks in advance.
Lei
