15-minute Weather File was created by Ángel Menor

Hello.

I am facing a problem working with SAM CSP Trough scenario.

When using 1 hour weather files (8760 data lines) SAM runs well and produces a nice output

Anyhow, if I expand the input to 15-minute weather files (35,040 data lines) SAM only takes into account the first 8760 lines (as in the image below).

Is it possible to feed SAM with a 15-minute input (not using solar resource interpolating macro)?

Regards,

Hi Angel,

Please see this post about subhourly simulations in SAM's CSP models:

Your image did not upload correctly, so I removed it. It may work better to attach images instead of pasting them into the message.

Best regards,
Paul.

I am actually trying to work with an Empirical model, so that is the reason it is not working.

Thank you very much for your promt reply, Paul. Regards.
