With the increasing use of simulation for building design, test reference years (TRYs) are required for energy analyses and design summer years (DSYs) for assessing natural ventilation in the summer. Previously TRYs and DSYs only existed for three sites in the UK. Also the data was derived from weather data up to 1995. More sites were required and also updated data, as a number of warm years had occurred after 1995. The opportunity was also taken to improve the derivation of the TRY using just the Finkelstein-Schafer statistic and also to improve the algorithm for smoothing between months. New programs had to be written for filling missing values in the lower-quality raw data. This paper describes these programmes, the quality assurance procedures and analyses the years produced. A comparison is made between the 14 sites demonstrating the link between dry bulb temperature, solar radiation and latitude.
