Re: [TRNSYS-users] Weather data of TRNSYS 17 (meteonorm)

Dear Ilyas,

Answering your first question, and maybe the second one too, a Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) is not a year in particular, a TMY consists of 12 typical meteorological months selected from various calendar months in a multi-year weather database (Yang et al.,2008)

You find the full definition and details in the NREL website https://nsrdb.nrel.gov/tmy

And if you have a access to Meteonorm, when you export the TMY file, you also find a report in pdf format, in the last step, where you can find all the data used to calculate it. In the image attached I highlighted the button to export that report.

Regards,

Mario

Subject: [TRNSYS-users] Weather data of TRNSYS 17 (meteonorm)

Hello ,

I have questions about the weather data of TRNSYS 17 (meteonorm).

01- I want to know for which year the meteonorm gives its results.

02- does it use an average of 10 years for example.

For the case of Algeria, for example, it is interpolation data or measurement stations.

cordially

Thank you.

Ilyas.
