Typical Weather Years and the Effect of Urban Microclimate on the Energy Behaviour of Buildings and HVAC Systems
Building simulation programs require climate information in the form of hourly based typical weather years assembled from meteorological measurements. A thorough description of these weather data sets is presented in this paper followed by a classification based on the way they are derived from monitored data and a comparison between the different types. Finally, we analyse the efforts made to deliver urban specific climatic data to assess the effect of urban microclimate on buildings.
