Thanks Paul!
I have finished running the 200ish weather files in TMY3 format, but still have about 10ish weather file that have problems to go through. I received error messages but I can hardly tell what have caused the problems. I think format problems should be solved by the EPW to TMY3 conversion.
What are the other possible data errors for CSP simulation?
I figured out that any space in "Station Name" and "Station State" is one problem, I fixed this one. What else?
The number of decimal digit of the data input?
Is there any limit on the "Site Evevation", "GHI", "DNI", "DHI", "Dry-bulb", "Dew-point", "RHum", "Pressure", "Wspd" and "Alb"? I mean will extreme value, for example, elevation > 3000m, GHI > 1400, Wspd > 12, Dew-point < -30, etc impact the simulation? This list includes almost all the parameters needed to create the TMY3 file.
The CSP simulations are very helpful but I feel SAM is a bit "mysophobia" about the data format which sometimes makes me frustrated in debugging those error messages. I hope it can be more compatible and robust.
Anyway, thanks for the support and I appreciate the immediate response.
