Multiple runperiods in EnergyPlus

Hi everybody,

For speeding up EnergyPlus simulation we think to divide runperiod (1 period of 1 year) into multiple runperiods (12 periods of 1 month) and create corresponding idf files for launching (12) EnergyPlus simulation in parallel. I don't know if someone did already the same thing and if the results would be different compared with the simulation of 1 period of 1 year?

Any idea?

Thanks a lot!
