new weather file causes diffuse solar irradiation peaks #1239
Comments
commit 1bf01dd |
Relative air mass is correct: it peaks at 19:03 on march 26th. |
The problem seems to be that the diffuse solar irradiation is shifted by approximately 1 hour. The weather file is thus again wrong. |
@mwetter I have run the script Example: Is there by any chance a bug in the conversion script (the time zone could be wrong) or is the source file wrong? |
To rule out further implementation error in IDEAS:
means sun rises before 15 April 08:00:00 and after 15 April 1970 21:00:00 while https://www.timeanddate.com/sun/belgium/brussels lists: This suggests the same shift. |
@Mathadon : There is a time shift in parsing the solar radiation data because TMY3 lists the integrated solar radiation of the hour that precedes the time stamp. See also section "Time shift for solar radiation data" in IBPSA.BoundaryConditions.WeatherData.ReaderTMY3 I remember that we worked with @zuowangda quite extensively on that time shift and the smoothing of the solar radiation because TMY3 lists horizontal radiation, that are then projected on the surface, which can lead to huge peaks if the sun is right at the horizon. For what it is worth, the BESTEST validation that Ettore conducted did not show any issues. This however doesn't rule out that there is a bug somewhere that hasn't been detected |
@mwetter I am aware of the solar radiation integration but I figured that this should be fixed by the half hour time offset in the table reader. After checking further it turns out that the |
Furthermore, we will change weather file to the Uccle file from https://climate.onebuilding.org since we apparently do not have a license for IWEC. |
@Mathadon : Is the |
It seems like you updated the jar in 2020:
This fixed the bug so the problem should be resolved in IBPSA. |
Thanks for the confirmation. |
There are diffuse solar irradiation peaks in the new weather file. Setting time zone to 2 fixes the problem.
