[TRNSYS-users] Multi-year simulations

[Hermann Schranzhofer]

Hi Jeff,

we had a project running some years ago doing a multi-year building simulation and ran into troubles with simulation time higher than I think 5 years. I can't remember exactly the reason but there is some limitation (some far away memory device in my old brain tells me that it was something with type56).

But I expect no one else beside us is such a fool to be interested in 5 years building simulation ;-)

Best regards,
Hermann Schranzhofer.

Andrew,

All of the TMY-2 data readers in TRNSYS will automatically rewind at the end of the year and start again.  We prefer the Type 15 model but 89 or 109 will do the same.  Hope all is well with you!

Jeff

All,

Is there a way to use the TMY-2 data reader in multi-year simulations, or can it read only up to one year and then stop?

Thanks
