I have successfully followed the steps outlined in chapter 6 of the ESP-r Cookbook (version Nov 2008). I have created a weather file for my city (Nantes) and selected the typical weeks for the winter1, spring, sum! mer, fall and winter2.. I have updated the "climatelist" etc... but then the chapter in ESP-r Cookbook Chapter 6 just stops and does not describe how execute simulation using the 5 ideal weeks / scaling option.  Is this an automatic scaling option or do I have to run the simulation 5 times with each respective "ideal week" and then self-scale the results?  Any ideas?<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Ian<em><br></em> <ul><li>Previous message: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/001926.html">[esp-r] Res: creat a new surface Bug </a></li><li>Next message: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/001924.html">[esp-r] circular windows </a></li><li> <strong>Messages sorted by:</strong> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists..strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/date.html#1923">[ date ]</a> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/thread.html#1923">[ thread ]</a> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/subject.html#1923">[ subject ]</a> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/author.html#1923">[ author ]</a> </li></ul> <hr> <pre>Hello ESP-r, <br><br>I am looking for all the information possible related to scaling up a model. The <br>cookbook states that scaling up skills and working practices to cope with the <br>level of complexity found in realistic projects has traditionally been <br>accomplished via mentors or workshops. Since those two options are not really <br>available to me does someone have a document that covers these details? <br><br><br>The cookbook briefly mentions some techniques (e.g. chapter 6 talks about for <br>example, how to achieve annual heating and cooling for a whole building without <br>simulating every day etc.... i.e. it reports initial scaling factors that can be <br>used to convert from short period assessments to seasonal performance data.). <br><br><br>Regards,<br><br>Ian<br><br></pre></div> </div><br>  <br> <br> <hr> <br> _______________________________________________<br> esp-r mailing list<br> <a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk" target="_blank" href="mailto:esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk" class="autolink">esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk</a><br> <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/esp-r" class="autolink">http://lists.strath.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/esp-r</a> </div></div><div style="position:fixed"></div> </div><br>  </body></html>
