Amit,

  TRNSYS can use a lot of different weather file formats. If you are not 
finding the location you want, make sure that you have installed the 
weather data archive (which is a download separate from the Trnsys 
installer download). If you still do not find what you are looking for, 
I would recommend that you look online for EnergyPlus weather data 
files. They are numerous and not hard to find.

kind regards,

  David
