Meteorological data set for building thermal environment analysis of China

Meteorological data set for China building thermal environment analysis has been developed by Climatic Data Center of China Meteorological Administration and Tsinghua University. The data set is based on observation meteorological data and provides hourly climate data for dynamic simulation. This paper introduces (1) source data of the data set; (2) the methodology used to get the hourly data based on the observation time-lapse data and daily data; (3) the select method of typical meteorological year and different typical years for design.
