Import Ground Temp - [source code]
Use this component to visualise ground temperatures throughout the year at specific depths. Please note that epw files usually only provide ground temperature data at depths 0.5 meters, 2 meters and 4 meters thus data has been interpolated for all other depths. In particular this interpolation assumes that ground temperatures do not vary over the seasons once the depth has reach 9 meters below the ground surface. -
Inputs
epwFile [Required]
An .epw file path on your system as a stringvisualisedata_Season []
Set to true to visualise the ground temperature data as an average for every seasonvisualisedata_Month []
Set to true to visualise the ground temperature data for every month
