Hi Paul,
I am trying to read a srw wind weather file in SAM store in my laptop. I am using OX. These are the steps I followed:
1. Copied the AR flatlands srw SAM stored file to check the format. Copied it in my desktop.
2. Followed the format and create a sample file called example.srw (that I am sending you). Saved it as .csv. Then, changed the extension in the name as .srw.
3. Create a wind project and use the wind resource of the AR flatlands srw copied in my desktop (I wanted to check it would run as if I would be using the file from the original location). Got the following error: failed to read local weather file: /Users/Ivonne/Desktop/AR Northwestern-Flat Lands2.srw error reading data column type specifier in col 1 of 128: '47' len: 2
Simulation windpower failed.
4. Did the same with example.srw. The hub height was read because I did not get the hub error specification, but I got the following error: exec fail(windpower): error reading wind resource file at 36:
Simulation windpower failed.
Can you please point me how to solve this? I don't understand why the AR file is not being read (I did not change it, just put a copy of it in my desktop and change the name). And why mine (example) is not being read either.
Thanks much!
