Hi, I'm using the Bently Hevacomp Simulator Package for a building in Dublin, Ireland.
My understanding is that the TRY and DSY weather data files are not available for Dublin so I have 2 questions :
1) Is the nearest recommended site for similar weather data - Manchester ? . . . . I've gone ahead with this site.
2) After purchasing and downloading the TRY , DSY-1, DSY-2 & DSY-3 files , when I open the 'Frequency Simulation' package the only Weather year I can see is the Manchester TRY.epw . . see below.
Should I be able to see & change this to the DSY1 weather data in order to run cals for compliance checks with CIBSE TM 52 or does the software automatically utilise the DS1 weather Data ?
Appreciate any help with these queries - Thanks !!
Hi Ray,
Apologies for the delayed reply, I was out of the office for a while. I understand that my colleague picked up the related Service Request so hopefully all is now ok in relation to this?
As Frequency simulates overheating the DSY (Summer Design Year) file is more often used - these can be set as below. You can use the Browse option should you need to import a specific file:
