Pei, In addition to Matt's reply, I think it is worth noting that there are different versions of the TMY (Typical Meteorological Year) format. Type109 reads only TMY version 2 files (which are by far the most common). Type15-1 reads the original TMY version 1 format (it is very rare to find these files; for one reason, they are in solar time, not local time). Type15-2 reads TMY version 2 format. There is another mode of Type15 that will read the recently published TMY version 3 format. TMY3 files are not in wide use in my experience. I am not exactly sure what you are asking in your second question. The Simulation Studio allows the user to create a graphical representation of the system from which it creates an input file (also called a "deck"). If you have an existing input file, you can import it into the Studio using the "File: Import TRNSYS Input File" menu item. Be aware, however, that if the input file was created by hand, Studio will do its best to decipher what was intended but there is a lot of room for "creativity" in how you write an input file by hand that likely will be very hard for the Studio to interpret. If that is not what you were asking, perhaps you could clarify and I may be able to provide a better answer. Kind regards, David On 12/7/2011 18:28, Pei Ru Chao wrote:
