Importing New Weather/Climate Files

Post by WayneBracher »

I am looking to run a future simulation and have downloaded a group of climate files (.epw) from exeter universities website prometheus.

I am wondering how to import these files into my program replacing the existing files.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Wayne,

This is easy, you just need to copy or save the .epw weather files into your Shared Content\Weather folder and they will be available for selection in ApLocate next time you run VE.

For reference we have a bit on this on our Knowledge Base http://www2.iesve.com/support/Knowledge ... 34§ionId=. There's problem guidance on adding weather files to VE as well (I've added a rather brief summary above).
