<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">The structure of the various sql tables are fixed, but the contents of the sql time series output are completely user-specified. And generating output for the design day simulations is also optional. Each specified
Output:Variable can be reported at one or more of the following frequencies: hvac timestep, zone timestep, hourly, daily, monthly, or annual.
<br>
<br>
So, to do as you suggest (always report drybulb and wetbulb to match the weather data), the user would create a snippet of input to add to every idf file specifying these output variables at the timestep frequency (due to sub-hourly interpolation it will match
the hourly weather data once per hour).<br>

Always interested in building bridges. Maybe we can pique your curiosity enough to consider adding another tool to your toolbox. :-)

Trimming and/or isolating the first ### rows of data to review regular simulation and design day information separately. Alternatively these are likely tagged in some fashion I haven’t discovered yet in the SQL structure and could be filtered in/out based on
that tag.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:windowtext;mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
By using ReportVariableWithTime, it <i><u>sounds like</u></i> you can avoid the extra steps I suggested to convert the interval count (the x-axes in the visuals below) into DateTime format.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:windowtext;mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Once pivot charts/tables have properly formatted DateTime stamps generated (or fed in), they can do a number of new magical things around grouping and displaying min/max/avg/more-complicated calcs with dynamic grouping. So for example with the same query you
could have a visual that lets you start at an annual 12-month view then “zoom” into a specific month/week/day/hour to see the data at its full resolution or any grouping in between.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
