[TRNSYS-users] Convert csv to tmy

Milo,

  csv means that the fields in the file are separated by commas. TMY is 
a text file in which each line has a very particular syntax but in which 
the fields are not separated by anything; they are instead fixed width. 
You can look online for resources that will tell you what the syntax is 
for TMY and TMY2. As it turns out, the TMY3 format is comma separated. 
Without knowing what data you have in your csv file it is not really 
possible to tell you whether you can make a full TMY data file from it. 
For example, if you only have temperature and humidity then you cannot 
make a TMY file from it because of all the missing data. If you have all 
the data that goes into a TMY file but in a *.csv file then yes, it is 
possible to convert the csv file into a tmy file but you probably have 
to do so manually following the syntax rules for the TMY format.

kind regards,

  David
