Thanks for this great plugin!
I am trying to manually calculate DDY data using EPW files. And I found createDdyFromEPW
being quite useful. I got a little bit confused by how the wind speed and direction calculation.
honeybee-legacy/src/Honeybee_ Run Energy Simulation.py
Lines 267 to 286 in 3bbc3a9
In createDdyFromEPW
, coldStdDevTemp
and hotStdDevTemp
was selected as the 18.5% (1385/8760) of dry-bulb temperature. I did not find any reference on this selection in ASHRAE HOF. Also failed to find any reference why coldMonWind
was selected as the 923 of winSpBelowTemp
. It would be great if you could provide some insights into this. Thanks!
