Reference EPW Parameters
Create Reference EPW Site parameters that represent the properties of the stie where rural EPW data was recorded for an Urban Weather Genrator (UWG) simulation.
Inputs
obstacle_hght
A number that represents the height in meters of objects that obstruct the view to the sky at the weather station site. This includes both trees and buildings. (Default: 0.1 m).
veg_cover
A number between 0 and 1 that represents the fraction of the reference EPW site that is covered in grass. (Default: 0.9).
temp_hght
A number that represents the height in meters at which temperature is measured on the weather station. (Default: 10m, the standard measurement height for US DoE EPW files).
wind_hght
A number that represents the height in meters at which wind speed is measured on the weather station. (Default: 10m, the standard measurement height for US DoE EPW files).
Outputs
epw_site
Reference EPW site parameters that can be plugged into the "DF UWG Simulation Parameter" component to specify the behavior of vegetation in the simulation.
