8760 Schedule in Ironbug

[Elliot_Glassman]

Is there a way to create an annual schedule with 8760 unique values?

Hi,@Elliot_Glassman You can use honeybee to create an annual schedule with 8760 unique values then assign to ironbug
Here is the example file created by @MingboPeng

Ironbug doesn’t seem to like the csv 8760 annual schedules from honeybee…they seem to need to the ironbug schedule components but those are configured for daily/weekly values

OpenStudio 2.5 doesn’t have Schedule:File object which is needed for csv files. But it has been added after OS 2.7, I will add Schedule:File later with OS2.8.

I have added ScheduleFile in this update patch, you can download and test it if anyone is interested in.

Ok @MaxMarschall I checked with OpenStudio team about this issue, there were some updates on dealing with ScheduleFile and ExternalFile object. I just updated the ironbug for this, and did some tests: Ironbug.20200429.zip (288.9 KB) 20200429_ScheduleFile_Example.gh (562.0 KB) Here is the daily schedule in csv to control system’s availability, and below is the hourly cooling results that matches the csv schedule.

Hi @MingboPeng,

I have tried the ScheduleFile to input the Source Temperature Schedule for a PlantComponent.

This error is shown:
“0. Program Version,EnergyPlus, Version 9.4.0-998c4b761e, YMD=2021.03.15 14:19,
** Severe ** [Schedule:File][Schedule File 1] - Missing required property ‘file_name’.”

Can I use the ScheduleFile to create a 8760 temperature schedule ?
Thank you,

I have the same problem when using rerun osm honeybee 1.2 but when I use legacy re-run osm 0.0.66 this was solved.

I’m also getting the same error using LBT 1.5 with OpenStudio 3.4.0 and Ironbug 1.1.1
@MingboPeng, any help is highly appreciated!

Hi all,

Please let me know if there is an issue with using CSV file as a schedule in Ironbug in the latest version with the new LBT1.7. It should be all fixed.
