Economic Feasibility of Biomass Gasification for Small-Scale Electricity Generation in Brazil

Abstract

The correct selecting of typical meteorological year is an important factor for accurate building energy simulation.In this study, the Sandia method has been applied to prepare the new TmyCreator software for selecting the proper data as the typical meteorological year (Tmy2).Also, the results of this new software have been compared with the available Tmy2 weather data file for two cities.It is found that, the results of TmyCreator software have good agreement with the old created Tmy2 weather data file for these cities.
