Re: [TRNSYS-users] Strange result from the weather data reader



Mr. Lee

TRNSYS does not output instantaneous values, so the value that you are seeing at a particular point in a printer is the average over the timestep. If you plot the temperatures at the midpoint of the timestep, as I have done in the attached spreadsheet, you will see that the profiles are identical.

Dear all.

I am using the Type15-6 to read the weather data of Beijing from the
data file provided by TRNSYS.  However, I find that when I use
different simulation time steps, the output of the weather data at
particular times will be different (see attached file).  I try both
TRNSYS 16 and 17, and the same problem occurs in both platforms.  Can
anyone advise why this happens?  Thank you!
