[TRNSYS-users] Multi-year simulation with multiple climate files

Adam, 

You can simply append multiple weather files together in one
file and read it into your simulation with Type9-Type16 or Type99.


However, if you want to run a simulation for multiple climate
locations, I would not recommend doing this. You can simply run a batch
file or parametric runs. 

Also, we generally simulate two or three
years (one 8760 hr weather file) with our advanced ground coupling
simualtions and take the results of the last year to account for the
large storage volume. 

Best regards, 

Matt Duffy
