files for 62 locations in India*
ISHRAE (The Indian Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and
Air-Conditioning Engineers) is pleased to announce the Webrelease of a
new set of "typical year" weather files for 62 locations in India. This
new set of ISHRAE weather files was created with the help of White Box
Technologies (USA) utilizing weather data from various sources,
including the Indian Bureau of Meteorology, the US National Center for
Environmental Data (NCEI), and satellite-derived solar radiation data
from the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
36 of the weather files(ISHRAE2) are entirely new, while 26 (ISHRAE1M)
are from an earlier 2005 set of ISHRAE weather fileswith updated solar
radiation.
This new weather data can be accessed in several ways:
1. ISHRAE's 2014 publication /Indian Weather Data/with the data files
on DVD (see here
for details).
2. Free web download of individual weather files at the following two
sites:
http://weather.whiteboxtechnologies.com/ISHRAE2(*.CSV, *.epw, *.BINM,
and *.FIN)
www.climate.onebuilding.org(*.epw only)
Technical details about these weather files are explained in this paper
at the BS 2015 conference in Hyderabad.
ISHRAE acknowledges the support of the Bureau of Energy Efficiency,
Ministry of Power of the Government of India , and the technical work of
White Box Technologies in creating these weather files.
If there are any questions about these weather files, please send e-mail
