[TRNSYS-users] Wind direction in TMY2

["Ratnalee Patil" <Ratnalee@innovativedesign.net>]

Dear Fuqiao,

Your guess is correct; N = 0 or 360, E = 90, S = 180, & W = 270. 
As Matt mentioned, you can find the convention used for wind direction in TMY2 data in Table 3-2 on http://rredc.nrel.gov/solar/pubs/tmy2/tables.html

Dear fuqiao,

I am not sure, but you can refer to the NREL documents about TMY2 weather
files. I am confident that the information will be in there.

Best regards,

Matt Duffy

Dear all

In tmy2 weather data, what is the reference orientation for the angle of
the wind
velocity? For example, 90 degree, does it mean east, 180 degree, means south?
Thank you very much in advance.
Cheers
fuqiao
