Vary Interior Climate via a Custom Map/Climate File in WUFI Pro?

Post by BESWUFI » Tue Apr 19, 2016 7:10 am -1100

I want to be able to have an interior climate vary in a regular daily interval. It appears that the WUFI Pro interface/gui only varies in a yearly interval. Is there a guide or reference that I can use to learn how to build a custom map/climate file to achieve this? For example I would like to carry out the following two scenarios:

1. Vary from 68 deg F and 50% RH to 62 deg F and 50%RH (hold here for 2- or 3 hours) and return to 68 deg F and 50% RH for the rest of the day. Repeat this pattern daily all year.
2. Vary from 70 deg F and 50% RH (10pm to 8am) to 100 deg F and 100%RH (8am to 10pm). Repeat this pattern daily all year.

Thank you for your assistance!

There exists a CreateClimateFile.xls in the tools folder of WUFI. You can create any hourly data for Temp and RH and export a WAC File which you can use in WUFI
