Revision history [back]

Hi,

I want to update the .idf files with the appropriate SizingPeriod:DesignDay for SummerDesignDay and WinterDesignDay.

The weather files I'm using are the CZ2010 versions, which I obtained from White Box Technologies. When downloaded, they included .ddy and .ddm files. But how can I adequately determine which DesignDay objects to choose from within these files (they include Clg 0.4%, 1%, 2%, and variations of DB, WB, etc)?

Also, the .ddm files include options for SummerDesignDay for each month of the year. Is it wise to have 12 SizingPeriod for SummerDesignDay to represent the 12 months?

Also, is there an easier way (other than use some python code) to automatically update the .idf files with these DesignDay objects?

Thank you in advance for your help!
