supy.util.gen_epw¶

supy.util.gen_epw(df_output: pandas.core.frame.DataFrame, lat, lon, tz=0, path_epw=PosixPath('uTMY.epw')) → Tuple[pandas.core.frame.DataFrame, str, pathlib.Path][source]¶

Generate an epw file of uTMY (urbanised Typical Meteorological Year) using SUEWS simulation results

Parameters:

df_output (pd.DataFrame) – SUEWS simulation results.
path_epw (Path, optional) – Path to store generated epw file, by default Path(‘./uTMY.epw’).
lat (float) – Latitude of the site, used for calculating solar angle.
lon (float) – Longitude of the site, used for calculating solar angle.
tz (float) – time zone represented by time difference from UTC+0 (e.g., 8 for UTC+8), by default 0 (i.e., UTC+0)

Returns:

df_epw, text_meta, path_epw –

df_epw: uTMY result
text_meta: meta-info text
path_epw: path to generated epw file

Return type:

Tuple[pd.DataFrame, str, Path]
