Re: [TRNSYS-users] meteo data files



Hi Isabelle,

The data is based on hourly data.
In the present version, most of the data is taken from the GEBA (Global Energy Balance Archive), from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO/OMM) Climato-logical Normals 1961-1990 and from the Swiss database compiled by MeteoSwiss.

Interpolations are made for certain variables which are not available at a given site.
If you install the additional French weather data distributed by CSTB
(in \Trnsys16\Weather\Meteonorm\Europe\France)
you will find a readme.htm file which explains which parameters are measured
for each site.

You find details about meteonorm at

Hi everybody,

Can anyone tell me how the meteo files available for Europe in TRNSYS 16 were built ? I've read in the documentation that "All files were generated using default options in Meteonorm V5.0.13". Does that mean that data sets of hourly values were built using mean daily values ? Or is it derived from real hourly mesures for many years (like the US-TMY2 data) ?

Thanks a lot already.

Best regards,

Isabelle Bruyère
