CCM-Editor Documentation and Online Manual
Program and model documentation
The CCM-Editor is a software tool for creating, checking and editing climate data sets in c6b format. These data sets are used by the IBK simulation programs DELPHIN, THERAKLES and NANDRAD.
CCM stands for Climate Calculation Module, the central library for climate data processing and the calculation of climatic loads used by all IBK simulation programs.
Climate data can originate from measurements, weather stations, individual files such as ccd files, or spreadsheets. The c6b format provides a strict, checked input format for component and building-energy simulations and moves error-prone conversions into a separate preprocessing step.
