Climate input Data
Climate input data files
To perform the calculation, you have to provide the path to a file containing hourly meteorological data for a full year.
Accepted file formats: .epw
Possible data sources:
- Repository of Building Simulation Climate Data: https://climate.onebuilding.org/
- Joint Research Centre, “TMY generator,” 2022. https://joint-research-centre.ec.europa.eu/pvgis-online-tool/pvgis-tools/tmy-generator_en
The calculation should be also performed with future weather datasets if available to ensure resilience of ventilative cooling strategies over time.
