Abstract

In the early architectural design and energy saving reconstruction of building, it is essential need the typical meteorological year(TMY)for building performance analysis. The accuracy of the typical meteorological year data is directly impact the energy simulation results. In order to obtain accurate TMY data for construction engineering applications, the paper does the following work: (1) Reviewed the progress of the typical meteorological year; (2) Several TMY generation methods were compared using the same raw weather data, discusses the applicability of these methods for the cities of typical climate zones in China. Based on the most recent and comprehensive first-hand ground observation data, this paper adopts three methods to generate TMY for the typical city covering the climate zoning of China. Result shows different TMY generation method has applicability in different region, and through the simulation of building energy consumption, the comprehensive method has obvious advantages. It shows that in a region with diverse regional climate characteristics such as China, one certain method for selecting TMY is not enough, and comprehensive methods should be proposed to meet the needs of different building types and energy consumption simulation.
