This data set contains 8760 hour simulation weather data for 47 cities in Europe (excluding France, Germany, and the United Kingdom). The data is intended for use with the HAP energy analysis program. When you download this data set, a file named WTBC301.EXE will be placed on your system. To use this data with the HAP program, you first need to expand this file onto a 1.44MB (or higher) floppy disk. To do this, first go to a DOS window. Change to the directory where you have downloaded the WTBC301.EXE file. Place a blank, formatted disk in either drive A: or drive B: From the DOS prompt, enter:
WTBC301 A:
if your disk is in drive A:, or
WTBC301 B:
if your disk is in drive B: When your computer has finished extracting, label the disk:
HAP Simulation Weather
Europe: (Excluding France,
Germany, and the United Kingdom)
You can now use this disk
directly with the HAP program as outlined in the manual section
describing simulation weather.
When you have finished installing,
you can remove the WTBC301.EXE file from your hard disk.
