Study on meteorological data for building energy consumption simulation

Research on the typical meteorological year is a basic work to offer the better service for building energy consumption simulation and provide the meteorological data support for the outdoor design conditions. The study of the typical meteorological year is based on the detailed historical meteorological data record and the scientific processing method, as well as the test in the building energy consumption simulation. Presents the research progress of typical meteorological year for building energy consumption simulation at home and abroad. Elaborates the generation methods of typical meteorological year and their influence on building energy consumption, and the analysis methods of hourly meteorological parameters according to the climate characteristics in China. Points out that the next step work should focus on the basis study of the hourly method and intensification model for different meteorological parameters, such as the extreme climate conditions and energy-using peak.
