Abstract : |
This paper presents information about outdoor design conditions, degree-days, bin data and weather data sets that have been generated from weather histories, recorded over a period of many years, for 20 cities located in five different climatic zones in Saudi Arabia. The information and data presented in this paper should be useful to many engineers and researchers in the field of energy conservation in buildings. Also, the need for weather data-sets in a format useful for dynamic energy calculations is emphasized. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved., |
