[TRNSYS-users] Data Reader interpolation question



Title: Data Reader interpolation question

Dear all,

I have some hourly electrical consumption data (unit is kW). I want to do some simulations with low time step (eg. 0.05) in order to check a controller I have designed. When I try that at some time steps I get negative values of load, because of big changes in the data from one hour to the other. I understand why this happens, but of course I cannot use this. Is there any way using standard types to interpolate data keeping in mind that the result ought to be positive? Of course I can write a new type, but I would rather not go down that road.

Thanks in advance,

George
