I have created a new weather data file, readable for SAM. When I copy it to project there is no problem but when I run my simulation eerors occur. it says, SImulation error!! The simulation failed to complete succesfully. check your inputs and try again.

The thing is that if I run the same inputs with another climate files, then no error occurs. what makes me thing that the problem is the climate file, but dont know how to solve it? any idea?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards.

It is very likely that there are number formatting issues in your file that are preventing SAM from reading the file.

You may want to try using the TMY3 Creator on the Climate page to convert your data into a format readable by SAM. The TMY3 Creator will correctly format the values when you save your data.

There are a few other discussion threads on this topic -- please search for key words like "weather file" and "tmy" to find them.

Best regards,
Paul.
