Bezeid, Type55 can be used to find the maximum and minimum value of an input over whatever time period that you want. However, it watches the input as the simulation progresses so can only tell you what the maximum and minimum values found up to the current simulation time. If sounds from what you describe as though you want to preprocess the weather file and find out what the maximum and minimum temperatures are before you run the simulation? I suppose that you could run the simulation for two years, find the min and max the first year and then set them in your control strategy at the end of that year, effectively using them in the second simulation year. It may be easier, however, to open your weather file in Excel beforehand and manually find out what the min and max temperatures are. Kind regards, david bezeid.deddy@orange-ftgroup.com wrote:
