Generation of a critical weather year for hygrothermal simulations using partial weather data sets

Original language description

This paper offers a novel approach for selecting a critical weather year for hygrothermal simulations. The method is suitable, in particular, for the countries where a typical damage caused by the external environment is due to the freeze/thaw cycles inthe external surface layers of building structures. The main advantage of the proposed treatment consists in its applicability for such locations where the longterm history of hourly weather data is not available. The lack of data is solved by the creation of an artificial weather history using the reference years from several different places having similar climate to the investigated locality. Then, the severity of each reference year is ranked by the newly formulated damage function, denoted as the Winter Index, and an inverse analysis is applied. After that, the mathematical relations between the weather data and the level of its severity to an investigated structure are found. Finally, the derived mathematical formulas are used to
