I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to get hold of TMY2 text data (comma delimited for example) for import into XL files. Is there a tool that will perform this conversion?
You can download from the TRNSYS website at University of
Wisconsin-Madison an Excel macro that reads a TMY2 data file and
converts it into a comma separated data file in Excel.

Best regards,
Does anyone have any information on any ASHRAE 90.1-2004 addenda that addresses G3.1.2.8 Design Air Flow Rates.
The 2004 standard uses a 20?F delta T to size the supply air flows.
I have a lab project where the supply air needs to be 100% OA and 8 AC per hour.
I read here: http://www.i2sl.org/eleclibrary/documents/maor.pdf See page 22 that supposedly there is an Addendum that addresses this issue.
Does anyone know where I can find that? I have looked through all the Addendum on the ASHRAE website and came up empty.
I guess the only other thing I think is a loophole is G3.1.2.5: which states that the baseline and proposed must have the same ventilation rates. This to me reads that if you are required to supply say 100% OA then both case should have it.

You might want to try the new TMY3 weather file
s
. They are
already in CSV format and can be opened directly using OpenOffice of Excel.

Any suggestions?

What is the best way to convert these TMY3 files into .bin files for use
in eQuest or other modeling programs?
